    how bad has it got to be to that you cant suck it up to go the the world cup...i'd give me left nut to go and watch let alone be part of it

    This seems out of character for Eddie and his assistants.

    I suggest that they're on different wavelengths and if you feel professionally you're not getting anywhere and personally diminished, leaving makes sense.

    @Kiwiwomble but if they are your boss and it makes going to work absolute shite?

    i get and your right....its just its the RWC so i think it would have to be unbelievably bad for someone to not be able to tolerate it for a couple of months more

    I've just witness Mrs Womble get bullied atrociously for the last couple of years by her boss....but she kept going back as she couldnt find another job and we have a mortgage

    That's the key right, if you can do it without any worries then I think it's better for you. My previous job I quit because my bosses were idiots and I just hated going into work each day - this was 2 months out from us getting the equivalent or our RWC. But, for me personally that's not a way to live my life.

    I assume this Aussie coach found it similar.

    you saw his press conference too? he's not wrong though, its been said on here enough that the media is only interested in a negative spin

    Ah, they're Owen four
    His squad is weird
    He just lost an assistant

    There isn't much spin needed

    There's more coming the other way where we have gone from smashing and grabbing this world cup
    To basically talking about 4 years time

    Aussie Rugby had become a graveyard for everyone - coaches, administrators, players. It’s living off past glories (i.e. still overly ambitious given its resources)
    and needs to play a smarter long term game. Not sure Eddie is the man manager they need.

    Do you blame them? Eddie's talking about how "fantastic" things are, trying to gaslight everyone into thinking everything's "fantastic, mate", and they're quite rightly calling bullshit. Maybe if he was a bit more honest, and even humble, they might take it easier on him. He seems upset that the Aussie rugby media aren't acting as his PR agents.

    Hardly. He's doing this on purpose.

    Great stuff from Eddie. He really knows how to make headlines. If you were one of his players, you’d be lapping this up.

    It is getting really old this BS from Eddie, people see though all the deflection shit,I saw real signs of Eddie losing the plot in this interview, he is to easy to wind up by the media now they pushing him to bite.

    This shit from Eddie I have been watching for years but he looks rattled now.

    @Chris Agree to disagree. I don't know why he would be rattled. He has a 5 year contract - little pressure (he's been picked for the next World Cup cycle not this one) - and a great record at World Cups

    @KiwiMurph
    Coaches get sacked and don’t see out their cycles just ask Eddie he knows about getting the boot for under performing as a coach,
    He might not last those 5 years keep losing and pressure mounts,The idiot who pushed for him getting the job will probably go with him.
    Eddie has a history of falling of the pace as a coach with a team the longer he stays with them.

    It's a bit sad to see. I wanted Jones to do well. Hopefully he can turn it around and stop the media getting under his skin like they did. But maybe Jones time is up. Great or very good coach once but maybe time has caught up with him.
