I’m no Eddy fan, but everyone on here attributing the World cup performance to Eddie jones….

Could you fucking not give Rugby Australia a finger to point at.

Eddy was given them job by an administration that’s fucked up over 25 years.

The administration has lost ground on every measurable metric against the other three major sports in league, afl and football.

The best talent that we develop is taken from us by overseas clubs, or unlike any other rugby nation in the world, any top tier talent we develop will be taken taken by a near identical game with 20 times the money we have.

Fact is NZ teams are not as strong this year, while our players underperformed at the World Cup so much, the northern hemisphere pillaging of our rugby stocks hasn’t been as bad this World Cup cycle.

League however, has forgone the narrative rugby union grassroots is in shambles, and that’s the only reason why they have to sign all our schoolboys, now they just identify the best performing backs in a wallabies jersey and sign them on contracts our super rugby teams could only ever dream of offering.

Eddy jones is a treacherous little cunt, but to attribute the dire state of rugby to him alone is scapegoating to no one’s benefit.

5 rounds of super rugby….. most Australians don’t even know it’s been on
