@nzzp different vibe in aussie though, not only is aussie obviously "bigger" (not rugby, the actual country/population) but its also still hugely private school boy focused....so there might be some old mates on some board that dont want to "sponsor" but could be attracted to buy a piece
And yet, with all those white-collar, highly educated guys from wealthy schools, it has all the hallmarks of being run by a bunch of idiots.

@mariner4life said in 16. 2022 COACH:
Dave Rennie
Controversial I know
But
Beat South Africa. Beat England. Beat Argentina away.
Should have beaten us but for an all time brain explosion.Went north, beat Scotland. Hammered Wales, came within a whisker of beating both Ireland and France. All while dealing with an availability crisis thr likes have never been seen.
Yes there are black marks, and Wayne Smith will win this by thr length of the Flemington straight
But he's done a fucking good job, and the wallabies are well poised for the world cup if they have had all their injury bad luck this year.
Was thinking about Rennie today and wondering if he could work with Eddie Jones.
Jones may be a bit low at the moment, but he's still a world class brain, who knows how to win world cup matches.
If he can work with Rennie as an assistant / advisor, I could see Aussie doing very well in 2023 Cup.

@MajorRage I think Jones coming home and even working with one of the super teams could be a big boost to aussie rugby

What's the go with Peter Conde resigning? Freeing up a couple of $s for an unemployed coach from NH? Isn't he a Marinos man? Well someone he brought on board.

@NTA good luck to him, but I can't fathom how a New Zealander can support the Wallabies.

Fair point. I forgot Charlie's Australian dad was busy plying his trade in the NPC when he was born.

Well he obviously not really a kiwi. He's what I call a former kiwi, and nothing wrong with that, his heart is in Aussie. I knew many so called kiwis while I lived in Aus, ones I called perhaps plastic kiwis, they may of supported ABs and some NZ sports teams, but apart from that they were Australian as. Hell whole 20 odd years I was there, I couldn't miss coming home a at leats twice a year etc as this is where my heart/soull is, I knew it everytime I arrived back, and as I left again. That's not saying there anything wrong with becoming Australian or anything, and was quite happy for friends/people that did, everyone becomes what they want to.
