No use blaming the coach the All Blacks are far to good for any team at the moment. They have much better players and much greater depth in every position. We did well against Ireland in June who are number 2 in the world. Let's see how we go against the Springboks and Pumas - maybe we are on par or a bit better than them.

Rugby Union is a minor sport in Australia with most talent going to AFL, rugby league and soccer. We need to face that reality and being about 3rd, 4th or 5th in the world is not such a bad effort under those circumstances. But there is a huge gap between the All Blacks and all other teams including us, unfortunately we have to play them more often than any other teams.

Happy, I'm not blaming the coach.

I'm blaming the adminstration. There does not seem to be any demand or direction to force union to be the top dog.

Pulver was asleep at the wheel, not sure Castles credentials carry over either. That leaves a code with no rudder.
