    Eddie Jones leaving out most of their leaders utterly crippled this Wallaby squad. It must rank as one of the worst coaching decisions in sporting history.

    Its now Super rugby's fault ..... I for one partially agree - Aussie simply has too many teams -- spreads the talent to thinly ...

    I feel for Hooper standing there... poor bastard - but he spoken well and appears to be a solid bloke - he really must have taken a big steamy dump in Eddies weet a bix....

    Well a lot of roosters are coming home to roost unfortunatley, and I get no joy in seeing it.!
    The whole RA thing has ben cause this.
    Eddie Jones was pulled in late,then said he was picking young fellas who hadn't learnt to lose, and has now taught them to be losers!
    And I listening to Stephen Hoiles saying now again (and correctly) that having 5 teams in super is spreading talent to thin and having to buy in players from overseas etc.
    They are 2 that come to mind.

    40?!! From Wales? This is sad

    Imagine what it could have been like if Welsh URC rugby was in better order than it is. Come to think of it weren't Wales rather average in the last 6 Nations as well?

    Welsh rugby is in a pretty shocking state - not as bad as Australian, but it is an utter mess from the WRU down.

    The fact that Gatland is able to get a team playing at a decent competitive level despite the chaos is very much to his credit.

    Are we still thinking Foster has some "dry powder" or are we merely limping in to the quarters for our turn on the transition to the north chopping block..

    Harrison talking a lot of sense (I feel sick saying that)

    Edit: He stated there had not been a proper head coach handover for about 20 years...

    Australia’s biggest World Cup defeat and Australia’s heaviest defeat against a Northern Hemisphere team.

    Bloody hell.

    If NZ cant get SA back Super rugby, we likely need something very drastic very quickly.

    No wonder we are falling behind as well.

    There is no way SA are coming back to super rugby. Horse has bolted. You can forget it.

    Apologies, my sarcasm not reading there.

    We truly fucked it up losing SA from Super rugby.

    Edit: we should add Fiji and Japan to the RC then devise a new pro comp.

    I’m starting to think we may need to allow ABs to play overseas.

    Yeah, that made me cringe. Using phrases like that on TV is part of the problem, not the solution.

    I never want the Wallabies to win except if they’re playing England or Ireland. I’m pleased Wales won but am feeling really bad for the Aussie team, their whanau and fans. Keep your heads up! Hopefully this result and the crap that’s contributed to it , will finally lead to the changes from top down that need to happen to improve the journey back from here.

    The man comes across as a complete, class-less dickhead. An embarrassment to the game IMHO.
