They should get someone like Des Hasler coaching them,atleast he won't chuck a tantrum after a loss.

origin is too much for mal with the aussie job.



he should leave the origin job to someone else.

Well then, if Meninga gets the job, I think the most important question is who will be his assistant?



Sticky is a dumbass for saying what he said. He has been fantastic for the Kangaroos and I regret that he must step down. I really don't feel there's a standout replacement.



I guess Meninga as coach and someone like Gould as his assistant would be best, but I definitely can't see that happening.

lazarus.



belcher

Stuart's a sore loser, and he's crowned it by walking away.



Oh dear.

Stuart is the role model of whinging Oz.

Good riddance. I had a lot of respect for the man as a coach before his outburst. In fact I was very impressed how calm and relaxed he was during the press conference after the final, but now I couldn't care less as long as he doesn't coach representative level again.

ha ha a sorry final chapter in Australias disastarous WC campaign!
