'We've got to beat them': Eddie Jones' hard line message to Aussie Super teams

As has been discussed over numerous articles in the last year, BB is a terrible flyhalf. He also didn't suit the All Blacks at fullback after he lost his confidence due to severe concussion symptoms. He only returned to form this year. I just watched the WC Final again until Frizell went off and he was terrible and a big part of the reason we lost.

It's what the private school toffs do. They have a born to rule mentality, even tho they are complete failures. That is why they will only tolerate Tah coaches or weak kiwis they know they can control. A kiwi on a million Australian dollars a year will do anything the largest franchise in Australia tells him to do. He's only here for the money.

That's why Ewen McKenzie was the ideal candidate, even tho Hooper and Beale still set out straight away to undermine him to get Cheika installed but the next best alternative is to have a group of coaches from some of the franchises, except the Tahs, (not the Western Force with kiwi Cron - who is hopeless), to keep the Tahs in their place. The Wallabies must also not have more than 3 Tah players in the squad. Otherwise they will start scheming again under instruction from the NSW administration. The Tahs have spent the last 20 years undermining the Wallabies to get more players than they deserved in the squad. Their NSW egos are more important to them than the Wallabies.

I can't see why a triumverate of Super Rugy coaches can't coach the Wallabies too. I could include MacKellar in there as well but he has shown himself to select on favoritism rather than ability based on the ridiculous number of sub standard Brumbies who got a game under Rennie. He's not much of a Queenslander but the Tahs will stab in the back in a flash too eventually.

Ireland picked one player for a couple of seasons ten years ago but they've been firm ever since. Meanwhile England's captain and first choice ten has gone to France and they have stood firm. Same when Armitage was player of the year and England didn't have another specialist openside.

What I believe is mindless is that some people can only see the one player who is absent and refuse to consider the wider ramifications to our game as a whole.

I think the key to using Skelton might be to pair him with a loose forward jumper like Liam Wright or Tom Hooper or maybe Charlie Cale - that might mean, when he is playing you have Harry Wilson on the bench and Valetini starting at 8??
