    Laurie Fisher as Wallaby defence coach is a fuck ton better than Eddie's plan of Brett Hodgson as Wallaby defence coach.

        As if the Jones disaster could be any worse, and who signed it off? Unless Eddie could do that himself?

        “The over-investment that was unapproved was $2.6 million, which covered three main elements, being team costs, staff travel and then player benefits,” Waugh told reporters.

            Thirty-three years after going down to Queensland in Brisbane, Warren Gatland’s Welsh side

            Warren Gatland didn't coach a national Welsh team 33 years ago.

              Plenty of injuries at the Tahs. I presume he'll be back with a SR side soon?

                Not sure he's flavour of the week anywhere, but maybe injury cover?

                  Fuck he talks some shit. I wonder if he actually believes it? They'll only be in a better place it they, andRA, survive the trauma!

                  And because of that, Jones believes the young players he blooded will ultimately become a golden generation for Australia, as they prepare to host the next World Cup in 2027.

                  “[I] don’t have any regrets. I tried to do my best in a short period of time,” he said.

                  “And what I think I’ve left Australia is a young squad that’s capable of doing well.

                  “Sometimes you’ve got to leave things in a better place and maybe you take responsibility for the failure, which is okay.”

                    “I’d 100 per cent be open to playing there again, but I think I’d have to lose at least 10 kilos – I’m 135 at the moment, so I just need to be disciplined and make the right choices with food.”

                                Apparently the relocation fee was not part of his wage (keeping it out of salary cap?) , but not sure how or what is story, bottom line is he has been done out of money etc. I get idea maybe he has found a way to getting out of contract so he can fins somewhere else to go before the rest of team come on market?

                                    this passage would suggest that the Rebels have a few on-field issues to deal with as well - not ideal to be relying on your 92kg winger for turnovers and slowing of opposition

                                        not sure i agree thats one of their many issues, i think its pretty common now days for wingers to be leading turnovers stats
