Eddie Jones isn’t solely to blame for what happened to the Wallabies. The rugby system in this country is at fault – starting at the top.
My son has been on a two-week school rugby tour in France to watch the Wallabies at the World Cup.
It is not a great way for a Wallabies coach to be treated, even if results haven’t been great, but I think it shows where we are with rugby in this country. As someone who loves the game, watching Wallabies supporters – who have paid thousands of dollars to be in France – walk out before the game was over was very difficult viewing.
I ask the kids after training to name their favourite Wallaby. Most of them can’t name one player. We want to hear less from McLennan and more about the players.
