Well done you OZ legend! You've had a lot off QR baggage to carry but as a true fan you've stuck it out.... earning my admiration at least!
Let's just hope OZ can still muster a better national team than indications suggest at present!
Thanks for that, Baz.
Your right I have a lot of baggage and not all of it attributable to the QR.
In regards to the game last night I really feel for some of the players especially Roe & Crofty who are without doubt some of the best players to wear their heart of their sleeve and never let anyone down. This ability of this team to now capitulate is some of the hardest days I have had to suffer as a spectator. You would think it gets easier after the horrific downward trend of results since McBain was terminated out of spite but it does not.
Australian rugby is at a cross roads and at the moment it resembles a head on crash between a train and a truck and the people meant to be in charge fixing it up appear to be on the sidelines puking up their guts and not dealing with the issues at hand.
Ridiculous mungo chasing and then shafting the rest of the players with inferior contracts, piss poor communication and attitudes between coaches fighting over the carcass of a super season and looking for someone to blame; and no leadership from the ARU is simply sickening.
This international season will role on and will start with a hiss and a roar and then turn into a whimper followed by another round of backstabbing and blamestorming unless someone takes hold of the reigns and as Peter Lewis said knock heads together.
Although don't get me wrong I'll still support the wallabies and I'm still banking on the AB's to fall at the semis come RWC time. As we know what the Bangladeshi's did to SA in the cricket last night. Go the underdog.
