Sir Steve Hansen to help the Wallabies.
Don't know why it's even news. It happens often. Didn't Henry help the Oumas etc? Most of these coaches are mates and I sure Hansen is only casting eyes over what Eddie is doing, and not actually taking training etc.
Boy talk about strom in a teacup.Since when are the Pumas (Oumas?) in any way comparable to the Wallabies in terms of fierce rivalry? Winning (or rather retaining) the Bled is massive every year. Do we even have a trophy that we compete with the Oumas for?
Ffs he's spending a couple of days with Auusies, Henry was actually part of Pumas set up whie they were playing ABs in RC. It's like when coaches go to workshops etc, I pretty sure Hansen is not going to be helping Wallabies with tips on AB stuff. You know even while he was coaching ABs Hansen was talking to Eddie every week, and when the ABs played Boks would go for a mael with Bok coach, I never thought it a problem then and don't now. And will add Wallabies are hardly fierce rivals that title belongs to Springboks etc.
Once again, there is a massive difference between the Oumas and the Wallabies. If you honestly don't see that then I seriously question your credentials as an AB supporter.
I'm sure Dan is as much of a supporter as the rest of us. He just seems to have a more apologist standpoint
No I been a one eyed AB supporter since I could listen to games on the radio in the 1950s as a 5yo, I just don't think Hansen spending 3-4 days with Wallabies as treachery and is going to particularly hurt the ABs. I just don't get my knickers in a twist over little details!! Geez some of you must not sleep at night if you this upset about Hansen spending 3-4 days with Wallabies while him and Mrs are already in France. FFS , Gregan and Marshall used to ring each other with tips and wishing each other good luck when ABs and Wallabies played tests against other teams!! And what is Hansen going to do in a couple of days??
FFS how are jokers going to handle Razor? He has made it very clear he wants to coach the ABs and then coach another team to a WC win!!Yeah its still ridiculous to compare helping the Wallabies with helping the Oumas.

You losing your shit mate, if all you can repeat is my finger hit wrong key in a reply. And to add Henry became part of Puma's coaching team, not go in and give advice on how coach was running thing. So how do you feel about Razor?
And why are you so keen on making Wallaby supporters appear more grown up than us? Who do Aussies love to hate in sport? England, and their supporters pretty well shrugged shoulders when Eddie coached England. I didn't think either Deans or Rennie were doing anything wrong actually coaching Wallabies. I really wonder if some just don't look for things to get upset over. -

A misspell by Dan earlier up the thread has deemed a rename of the Pumas!

As Canes said I hit O instead of P when saying how I thought things were strom in a teacup. I often do that, don't really tend to concetrate when replying on forums, as I admit to usually doing it while watching tv etc. I not a huge internet fan, only really come into rugby forums and tend to just type as quick as my clumsy fingers will do it and never check.

mate, it's how memes start. Someone on here (Snowy?) wound up being assumed to be a serial killer with bodies in the basement. It's the way it is; lean into it and take the W.
Ouma's has a certain ring to it

And as Rancid knows I right and the whole Hansen thing is nothing , he just finds the mistake in first post , as he got no other argument?

@nzzp Oh hell mate, I got no probs with it at all, I even started thing it now. I don't get upset, hell I take very little serious in forums anyway. Hell if I got upset when anyone picked up my mistakes I would be a mess and worry about someone having a look at how a mate does his job!!
