@Chris Hope Ryan is gone also.Lets just start again.
If it is Joseph he's going to need some good knowledge around him.
Most likely a new captain also.The thing is the players like Ryan,wether that makes a difference I don't know.
Yeah new Captain new coaches normally come in and pick their Captain which probably will be someone else.The thing is if they sack all the assistants under Razor and Rennie doesn't jump on board.
The assistants like Jane etc really don't have any international experience which doesn't make much sense if only the HC has international experience and the board wants that you would expect the same applies to some of the assistants. -

I hope so. No reflection on Scooter and he plays his heart out, but he never looked comfortable as Captain

t has ended up that way just going through the process so it is seen to be done.
I think there is more to it than that.
This aint just about the senior XV.
For example the recent appointment of the new BF HC doesn't look good at a superficial glance.
I'd be hoping that a thorough process was gone thru leading to that appointment.They are also struggling to find a CEO.It is a mess past boards Ceos etc have produced a lot of miss trust.
There are a few bridges to be built.
Joseph has the job he has for a while. -

Didn't help that it's now clear the team was fractured as well. Taine Randall V2

Wait, Brad Thorn?? Look, he's done a couple of brilliant podcasts in the last couple of weeks (is he looking for a job?) but his Reds team was pretty fucking average, and he finished with a win percentage in the mid-40s that includes when they only got to play the shit Australian teams.
-
actually I thought Brad was named forwards and strength cond. coach for Malta.
There you go, international test experience.
Good place to land some falcons. -

Good place to land some falcons.I thought this was an excuse to bust out a Dad joke but it is in fact true
They'd certainly go into every attacking play head first.

Is this true or just an excuse for you to bust out a lame Dad joke ?
I'd hate to steal your thunder.
Apologies, Google confirms this did in fact happen.
Go to the sauce. I think his wife is a Malteser (no, not a biscuit).

I doubt his wife wants to leave the ancestral homeland in a hurry. But boy it can get hot there.
I also read fan complaints he scared away players by having certain rigid views. Which surprises me, because, QLD. -

I could be completely wrong cos I've never met Brad either, I did walk past him on the street some years back though.

Dane Coles is the former All Black on the selection panel
reliable source? can someone confirm...is he one of those players you hear about that was...."full on" on the pitch but secretly quote smart etc off the pitch?
-
Coles who came into first class rugby getting coached by Joseph at Wrllington.

a masterclass in wishful thinking by NZR.
complacency/arrogance/hubris . . .

all aus union teams are shit, doesn't seem to matter who is coaching them
the list of candidates is restricted, and not overly inspiring (to me), Thorn fits right in there
ironically, I thought the last incumbent was very well qualified, but he looked certain to be headed for a crashthe task in front of the new coach is severe, may be a left field appointment might be the go
Rassie was a bit like that when he got his gig
a good chance it could still end badly no matter who they go with -

whats coles "qualifications" (for lack of a better word) for joining the panel, has he done coaching at any serious level or been a people manager? maybe interviewed lots of people before
