There was a period that Richie dropped more ball than usual it was around that 05-06 period when we were playing a lot flatter in attack and we would have runners standing a lot closer to the defensive line. A number of our forwards, even Jerry took a bit of time to adjust.
In that 08-11 period he was a real go to guy with ball in hand. Carried far more than earlier in his career and we even liked to use him out wide.
@act-crusader haha yep, there was that period where he used to be good for at least one or two knock ons a game

Theres a fat bald old niggly bastard coaching in the Sydney boonies who can't be much worse than the other contenders.
Apparently he talks a big power game.

if you're referring to me: I'm no longer a coach, but a club administrator pursuing a refereeing career.
Therefore I'm the right man to fix both the hideous state of Rugby Australia's pathway system, AND World Rugby's convoluted Laws.

Big Owen is $9.00 to score a try, $3 more than his propping partner, Moody, with Whitelock next 'least likely' on $5

@taniwharugby sportsbet here have Australia at $11 head to head.
EDIT: I assume Owen's $9 is in Kiwi dollars, and with ours in Aussie dollars it means Franks is almost 50% more likely to score a try, than the Wallabies are to win

It would almost be worth giving him the coaching gig just to see the results of his antiquated methodologies and tactics.

Speaking of
Meanwhile the team is taking a safety first approach:
"I think you can’t really think about it as if you need to do something or you need to win a game or you need to come on and do something miraculous," he said.
"That’s what we’ve tried to focus on this week, not pushing those passes, just being able to stick to our structures, get through them and knowing that we’ll get them with our game plan and not just trying to come up with those little offloads to win the game, and stuff like that.
"Obviously the X-factor helps in all that sort of stuff but it’s just sticking to our structure for the full 80 minutes because that’s what will get them in the end."

It
s amazing how many Ozzie, and quasi-Ozzie, sport commentators hark back to using methods and/or coaches of the Wallabies golden Era. Times have really, REALLY changed - it's best to move on. The articles by Lord, et al, on theroar.com.au are full of 'bring back buck' type ideas, from pretty close to that era! -
Richie also used to be a good support runner ,
Due to his non stop running , if someone would make a break he would often bob up in support , receive a pass and move it on quickly to a more dangerous runner
