    Seemed that there was a big lack of communication and working as a team. Lineout misfired and numbering up on defence had some noticeable shortfalls, including the Rebels U20 ability to create an overlap with ease while still being a player short on the field.

    Red card kept them in it, but the Rebels looked bigger, stronger, faster, and worked together better.

    Rebels senior side looked bigger and stronger too! Their blokes looked a lot bulkier than ours.

    Certainly no direction or improvement. Apparently he is doing drills when the kids were 15!!! Haha you reap what you sow, they looked like 15 yr olds! It is a joke he has so much control over proceedings.

    The problem is
    1. The best players are not on the field
    Reason.
    The selection process is flawed.
    The coaches are selected through a toe the line or move on policy which stops creativity and lets them nominate players from there own clubs that don:t belong
    This is happening in the under 17s right now and will be evident in the results when they travel
    The under 20s played a player who has:nt played club rugby for over a year but attends RWA training and has also played for the state schoolboys showing his lack of rugby and also abillity to go to the next level
    The junior executive which has been declining over the years as they listen to the RWA as to how things should be run
    Take as much money as possible for as little as we can do in return.
    Nestor has to much control and his selection of players is not based upon the traditional process of attending games but a quick and easy trial process at the end of the season
    The decline in numbers attending trails in the 16-17 age group is proof that the players are loosing interest which is reflecting in the numbers flowing into the senior comp
    Why Tom Fern or Dwanye Grace or Andy Cole to name a few are not involved in this process is beyond belief
    We hear the lack of money is the problem but it looks more like a closed shop syndrome at RWA with those within protecting there own space and feel threatened by change or being found out by the state of there true incompetence
    The loss of Tai McIsaac is something that shows someone with balls gets moved on very quickly under the guise of leaving town for personal reasons
    The lack of true rugby players on the junior executive will only leave RWA to run its own agenda and this will lead to a decline in the local comp and flow onto the senior sides
    I would not agree always with pieter on the direction he wanted to go as he would not agree with myself as to where I would see rugby but that is the way it should be with many ideas healthy debate and a process that covers all ideas good and bad
    Nestor should open the doors to people who are capable of challenging him and his processes and as you would say the cream would rise to the top
