He has at least stabilized the dumpster fire that was the Wallabies. Up to them not to screw up the next appointment. Kiss from the Reds would seem a decent hire. And Latham has been around for some time

Just read that Latham is off to coach in MLR, says he needs experience, and hopes to work his way up to Reds. He nowhere near an international coach.

I wonder why he is quitting? Anyone have any scoop? Seems a hard job to keep for some reason.
Family. His son has medical support needs and both his son and Joe's wife live in New Zealand so he doesn't want to be away from them as much as the wallabies coaching role requires.
Same as before then
i had assumed thing had changed for him when he took the Wallabies job, his son didn;t need as much support or something
I got impression he took Wallabies job with some push from WR. If he was real keen I sure his son could get good care/help in Aus too, but Joe never intended (or I think was interested) in more than a caretaker role to help sort them out. Was a bit like WR was pretty keen on Aus getting 27 WC, as they needed help to get books sorted etc.

Pretty sure it was because of relationships rather than any push from WR.

Yep well push maybe wrong word, but I have heard Schmidt say something along the lines that WR had involvement, or something like that. Not suggesting any wrong doing or anything, but Aus is (I pretty sure) considered fairly important to WR that they are competitive etc. They don't want country losing rugby as such.

Good. Even though parts of our game plan have gone stale in the last few years, something we always have is talent in our own backyard.

Good to see NZR sticking to their guns
Razor must be a bit slow, but even he must realise that the tail does not wag the All Black dog

DMac is so much better than Barrett at 10 right now it's not funny. How Beaudy is the AB starting 10 I have no idea.

And RM isn't significantly better than DMac to change rules to let him play

He will. It's probably why Barrett gets put at 10.

And why he selects EB. What with Akira overseas too.

Unfortunately Wallace's injury has made that selection narrative easier for a while
