    Just astonishing that any coach would select a player that so obviously tales time and space away from his team. Especially if you want to start with urgency.

    Or run a game plan based on speed

    Reminds me of the Rodney Marsh quote from his England debut:-

    Alf Ramsey "Rodney, I'm going to have to pull you off at half time"

    Marsh "Thanks boss, we only get an orange at QPR".

    That word coach is used pretty loosely.

    If Aus were coached they'd probably win this world cup. Helluva talented team.

    Good old Rodney, he and Stan Bowles made me proud to be a Hoops fan as a kid.

    Having said no punchlines necessary, I belatedly thought of a caption for that video: "Unblocking the Sinck?" L'espirit d'escalier, I think our French chums would call that.

    Why is Englands game plan devoid of usingb2 of their weapons: Watson and Tuilagi? The latter was pretty much anonymous for most of the game.

    I think Krusty should really stay away from the media for a while. They played "quite well" ffs

    Pretty gutted. Feels like the last four years have been such a waste. This team could be so much more than what it is.

    We actually played OK, England were just better. Not much more to it than that, really.

    The gall to ask for a safe space during a press conference.

    Who should they get next? I think someone who has the polar opposite temperament would be a good start. And more tactical nous

    Dave Rennie is the front runner, apparently.

    Key for me is A coach that:

    Is happy to evolve and have his ideas challenged
    Is pragmatic not idealistic
    Is good at PR/press as Ozzieika rugby is in a bad place

    Is there no Aussies keen ? The last kiwi had a great cv and that didn’t end too well

    I think he would be a great choice. Unassuming, humble, clearly has ability and is a winner. Won't be a dick like Dingo was, a breath of fresh air. Isn't he contracted in Scotland?

    Rennie could also continue on with the ref whinging like he did with the Chiefs. Not sure if he's been like that since he moved off shore.
