Its just not right giving the national coach to someone from another country.
Chiefs and bulls are probably the best teams in comp currently.
Best man for the job and all..

Gotta have an Aussie as the coach.
It's hard for a kiwi coach to fire his aussie team up to play the all blacks when he is talking about jandals, chully buns, judder bars and no one knows what the fuck he is going on about.
Barnes at fullback!?! He shouldn't be anywhere near a Wallabies jersey!!
Thought folau at fullback and wingers to be Cummins & Ioane.
I still think we can knock them off. Genia is crucial to our success.

Agreed.
first test... who wants to call it?
Brissy is going to be insane tonight...
Very interested to see how JOC goes - I think the Lions will try and play a tight 5 game with tactical kicking and also crash balls towards JOC I wouldnt be surprised that in defence Lealiifano doesnt play a more roaming role to try and cover JOC abit.
I think if JOC cant control the team around and if his defence lets him down id like to see Matt Toomua from the Brumbies step in - currently the form 10 in Australia and really Aus only "true" 10 at the moment - with JOC, Beale etc chopping and changing positions so much....then you have Cooper - dont get me started on that block though lol....
Cooper is a waste of space show he can only defend at fullback.. think o Connor will go well he is the sorta player that excels where ever he plays
Yep...really NOT a fan of Cooper at all - I would say the most over-rated Rugby Union player Aus has ever had...
I am a fan of JOC and think he will be solid but you know the big question comes up - when will the Wallabies 1. Select a 10 and stick to it and 2. when will they find a true no.10 - if JOC can stay in that position then I think he will do well..to much chopping and changing in the Wallabies squad.
Also this weekend -
All Blacks V France - All Blacks by 20 Im thinking
Boks V Samoa - this will be a close game and if the Boks dont turn up I have Samoa by 3
It will be interesting to see what happens if Mckenzie becomes coach at the end of the year - will he slot Cooper straight back into the 10 spot?
