    The textbook definition of a clusterf*ck that appt. What a mare. I hope Australia come back a lot stronger, especially given the next RWC is in Australia.

    Super rugby is going to be interesting this year. Both countries with new international coaches.

    Accepts the job. Two weeks before the RWC he's talking to Japan. Two weeks after the RWC he was committed. Two weeks later he's resigned.

    Integrity, eh?

    Entirely predictable. Complete lack of integrity. Add to that McLennan's absence of self awareness.

    Mr Cheika, Mr Foster, Mr Rennie and Mr Schmidt are all available if they ARU can tempt them.

    They got exactly what they deserved. A Rennie coached team would have made the QFs at least, I’m convinced of that. Anyone responsible for his hiring needs to go.

    The collateral damage to the careers of blossoming #10s and former captains who deserved much better is a disgrace.

    Let Larkham achieve something first. His time will come. They just need a good leader with a coherent plan. And NZ needs them to have that too.

    And reading the report, the discussions have been taking place over last few days to avoid payouts.

    Maybe not as daft as it sounds if relations between the players and the ARU have broken down and need mending. Foster clearly inspires player loyalty.

    Remember Eddie going apeshit at that Aus fan calling him a traitor? Seems like that cut a little too close to home. What a piece of shįt that guy is.

    Is Kim Jong McClennan going as well? He deserves to fall with Eddie.

    And we thought the NZRU was a shambles, the ARU is a clown show on steroids.

    No, he played for Randwick. I’m sure he hates Warringah 😉

    This is some Wests Tigers level shit.

    I used to have a pretty good opinion of Eddie. But this year has been an absolute disgrace. The results and standard of play have been terrible. Conceding the World Cup before he even left should have seen him sacked on the spot.

    But the fights with journos asking legitimate questions was a poor look. And the remarks about Michael Hooper were actually disgusting. He's behaved deplorably, he's been a complete failure on the field. And this mythical quest to rebuild the wallabies has actually done more harm to the game here than good.

    Fuck off Eddie, you are a traitor. And the guy who hired you should be crouching in front of his sword right now. Or would be, if he had any integrity.

    @mariner4life nailed it

    its actually looks so dodgy...this result had to have been a real chance in their minds, thats why he was talking about youth for the future, would have had some respect if he'd stuck to his guns and tried to get it right next time

    but jumping ship tells me he must have honestly thought rennie was shit and he could walk in and be a saviour...but what hes done is fuck over his national team
