    @antipodean Matt Shiteau thinks the RWC is the only thing that matters because he fucked off overseas but wanted to come back and play the World Cup, and the stupid fucking Wallabies let him.

    His name is actually synonymous in Aus rugby for having your fat overseas paycheck cake, and eating it too. they fucking literally named the rule after him. Fuck off Matt.

    there is a part of me that wants England to win the World Cup now

    for the simple fact it will stop Unions hanging on to coaches they don't want on the false premise that it is the only way to approach the tournament.

    Or Wales...

    Whoa, that's a lot of money - I'd be interested in what the women's rugby budget is here, nowhere near that I'd guess.

    @Machpants NZ budget was $17M in 2021 and $27M in 2022 (with $10M of that going directly into RWC) from a total of $138m of 'Teams in Black' playing and competition expenses.

    Sounds a lot but adds up fast with squads in the 30s and support staff in the dozens

    All the other top coaches seem to respect him. The public perception is pretty much down to his never ending desire to stir.
    That is a real stirring as well not just a media thing. Look at the numbers of players used yet he still pretty much returns to his “favourites” quickly. That can be thought of as searching and not knowing but I reckon it is a tactic to keep his preferences on their toes.
    Then there is coaching staff. He is always looking for different views and voices but they can be seen from the outside as not being able to get along.

    It's paywalled so you'll need to explain what makes it story of the weekend.

    @Nepia Eddie Jones coached some under 10s in a London park with massive enthusiasm for over an hour in freezing conditions. No obvious links between him and the club. He had walked there and then walked off at the end. Some of the parents weren't sure it was actually him.

    That’s a great story and reminds me of Jerry Collins turning out for Bideford 2nd XV when he was in the area.

    Especially as under 10s is usually Sunday, so the poor souls get a double dose.

    @booboo especially with the goal posts in the background, they were probably there to play soccer football!
