Robbie Deans, the former Wallabies coach, has stated that he will not be returning to lead the Australian rugby team. He believes that it is not beneficial to go back and that there are enough passionate rugby figures who can help the team recover.
Wallabies coaching legend Robbie Deans has shut down any notion he may return to steer Australian rugby out of the doldrums, adamant that it is “never good to go back”.
It was a move that came following a disastrous World Cup campaign, in which the Wallabies failed to qualify for the quarter-finals for the first time in their history. “I’m not passing judgment on any decisions anyone else made; it’s obviously a chapter that’s closed – which is probably a good thing. I think there’s been enough said about that, Elvis has left the building.“They can, and they will , they’ve got a great era coming in the game here, and as we’ll see you’ve got players who want to be part of it.
For Australian rugby, that means Super Rugby, and ensuring the grassroots pathways are elite enough to ensure the gulf between the nation’s top sides and their New Zealand and South Africa rivals is closed. “Every nation needs to tend to the domestic market first. I think some of the governance is distracted by the glitter, the glamour and the gold, and they’re missing the point. If you don’t cater for your domestic market, you don’t have a future.
