RWC Week 3: Wales v Australia
-
Hey Eddie, who doesn't know anything about rugby?
What a complete shitshow
-
Ugh... can I change my vote
-
At this point, Eddie seems to have totally lost the plot, if you're going to go gung ho and pick kids then bloody well stick to it, at least for a whole game. If you're not, then don't drop the experienced players before the tournament.

Nothing between these teams at all. Wales for me by 6.

@Dodge When did he appear to lose the plot with England? Was there some point at which the assistant coach turnover was just too much?

I think the coaching situation was the biggest issue, no one wanted to work with him and he constantly recruited people with no experience of the game, who then didn't last very long. IMO over time, his style of management gets on everyone's nerves - coaches and players, kind of like Mourinho.
Timing wise, i think he benefitted from a decent base built by Lancaster and then picked some rogue grunt to build on top. It started to fall apart after 2019, he wouldn't trust new players and let them learn international rugby in the shirt. Hence we're stuck with Daly / May / Cole et al who probably weren't good enough at their peak and definitely aren't now (probably harsh on May at his peak)

@voodoo hi mate, yep, thought I’d show my old, wrinkly, fat smug face again given that both England AND All Blacks are shit.
Lurker!

Why not put Carter as backup 10? Crazy or not, Eddie has cojones!

Eddie has no fucking idea about what he is trying to achieve

Kellaway is still a good 15, no? Has he slipped in form?
