I think we’ve been watching a different Wallaby backline.
RWC News: French rocked by another injury, Eddie whacks Poms and says Wallabies have one big advantage
No more than Homebush 8 klms away
NRL Week 1 finals match-ups: Playoff fixtures LOCKED IN
To be honest the Panthers deserved the stadium that NSW taxpayers funded for Parramatta. I’ve never understood why, with an 80,000 seat stadium at nearby Homebush that the millions were directed there… couldn’t have anything to do with it being a swinging electorate

Not to mention his obsession with league players.eg. picking Mat Rogers over Chris Latham in 03 RWC final was a major blunder

Add to that, he was handed an outstanding World Cup champion side by Rod McQueen

I agree with much of what ypu say except for our being in a better position than England. They may be extremely flawed tactically. much of thst is down to Eddie, however not talent.. our issue is a lack of talent . We’d struggle to get more than a couple in a squad selected from both teams.

Cipriani is spot on. Eddie should stop making excuses for his failures at England and focus on his excuses for failing here

No complaints about Sharpe’s game. Barely noticed her tonight, which is a great change from some of the blokes

Agree that the Castle/Hasler scenario has more than run its course. As you say there has been sufficient time to get themselves sorted since.
Bulldogs need more than a few good men but the truth is club's had years to get a handle on mess they created
If he’s looking to move, Manly have been after a replacement for Skivvy Matai for a while. Although whilst Seibold is there he may not fit his recruitment strategy of half decent Tigers, nepo kids and over the hill headband wearing props
ANALYSIS: Broncos minor premiership stalls as Storm streak hits 14 in a row - with rookie Fa'alogo stealing the show
Only a fool would write off the Panthers going three in a row. To me they are playing on a completely different level to everyone else. It’s really theirs to lose this year.
ANALYSIS: Broncos minor premiership stalls as Storm streak hits 14 in a row - with rookie Fa'alogo stealing the show
Let’s be honest, both line ups last night more closely resembled a pre season trial than a game of significance. Having said that it was entertaining. I feel a little sorry for Broncos fans clamouring for a minor premiership though. But I guess that won’t matter if they get in and win the GF.

No great coach is ever available… they have to be persuaded and enticed. No point is saying that this one or the other is contracted and unavailable… money talks and contracts are worthless. Just accepting the results of the past decade is tantamount to accepting that he’s the best of a bad bunch and therefore just keep renewing his contract. Believe me there isn’t a coach running through SEEK waiting for them to place an ad. With the obvious advantages that club has, it should be an easy sell to a prospect that could take them further. If they are prepared for mediocrity then good luck to them.

And got smashed. Brian Smith made umpteen grand finals and couldn’t win one

Arthur is failure on loop. Nothing is going to happen on his watch. The Eels and their long suffering dedicated fans deserve much more out of a club that should do much better.

Barrett was a case in point

Can’t argue with the top 4 but the rest? The criticism of England whilst valid could equally be made about us. At lesdt the poms have had one recent win, our blokes have just as many faults and have the added problem of not having any clues on how to win headed by a coach with a messiah complex

Churchill's Latrell apology too little, too late with Rabbitohs' season imploding amid ongoing off-field dramas
The muck raking News(Very) Limited clowns who feed off this garbage, no doubt think it’s news. Clowns like Rothfield should be frozen out by clubs, they just drag the game down

You’re right and some of the inspirational mid season recruitment didn’t help.
Manly heap more misery on dreadful Bulldogs with DCE's class shining through a bleak 80 minutes
England inexplicably changed to an Eddie disciple and we just took their cast off

'Results haven’t been good': Wallabies head into World Cup winless after being humbled by France
Not often you can look at a scoreline like that and feel that it flattered us. How did Eddie get the gig??!! 0-5 now. Did we miss how he left England in such a mess with seriously flawed game plans and inexplicable selections. The RFU are so stupid they even hired the guy he mentored to fix the mess.!!
We did worse, we hired the guru himself.

If you find out you might let everyone else know. They’ve fallen backwards into the semis. Sharks by plenty this weekend.
