    Rebels and Wallabies New Coaches

    Rumour mill is working overtime - the Rebels are down to two names for a new coach. Tony Mac and Ewen Mac. This is due to Jake White being the frontrunner for the Wallabies.
    In addition JOC is not required at the Rebels.
    Fact or fiction...............time will tell.

    Can't see Jake White leaving the Brumbies to take on the Wallabies job
    Ewan will end up coach of the Wallabies who will get rid of Deans even when we win the Bledisloe and the Rugby Championship
    James O Connor ( I hope comes back to the force on the basis he is guaranteed the starting 10 all season)

    The Force need JOC just as much as JOC needs the Force. Say what you will about him he is a great young player who always gived his all on the field. He may act like a dick off it sometimes but has never really been in or caused trouble. BRING HIM BACK TO PERTH

    9 Alby
    10 Holmes
    11 Cummins
    12 Godwin
    13 JOC
    14 DHP
    15 Morahan

    Or

    9 Alby
    10 Holmes
    11 Morahan
    12 Godwin
    13 Cummins
    14 DHP
    15 JOC

    GAFFA I like your thinking, but JOC along side Kyle would have to be a mistake - whilst both have the ability to tackle well above their weight limits, the 12-13 would become the point of attack for every forward with a heartbeat and our 2 strike weapons would be battered and bruised and spending a fair bit of time on the side line.

    IF JOC does make a comeback - and I hope the first thing out of his mouth is a "I was misled and mis-informed apology" - he has to play at 15.

    I can totally see White leaving the Brumbies to coach with a top five international team! He would be crazy not to, and I think he's got a point to prove after leaving the Springboks

    I reckon McKenzie is on the outer after having the Reds stumble a bit this season, it makes him look like a flash in the pan, which the Woblies don't want at the moment.

    as for Joc at the Force? I think exactly the opposite to you Pete, I'd only have him back if he comes cap in hand and says he'll play whatever position is best for the team and stops acting like a primadonna. As I've said before, our holes arent in 10 and 12 anymore. Even this season, our biggest hole is at 13, while that is one of the few positions in the backline JOC hasn't already played, we have good options playing other places who could cover it.

    Holmes is a better 10 than JOC right now
    Godwin has proven more than capable at 12, to see him dropped for JOC might be fair, but not necessarily in the best interests of the team
    We have a couple of big wingers who can play 13
    a back three containing Morahan and Joc (in any positional structure) is pretty bloody good without even thinking about the HoneyBadger (who could slot into 13) or other aquisitions.

    Nope it's back three for me, otherwise he's still letting his ego be bigger than the team!

    If Cummins stays and JO'C signs I'd have

    10. Holmes
    11. Morahan
    12. Godwin
    13. Cummins
    14. DHP
    15. JO'C

    If Cummins has gone Mercenary and heads overseas well we would have to find a new 13

    The contract with west harbour is nothing more than a PR stunt. Most if not all super rugby players have a contract with a Sydney club or QLD club. I wouldn’t read anything into it. If Rumours are to be believed the ARU doesn’t want Beale and JOC together and we all know where beale will be playing next year...

    If JOC comes back then I wouldn't be opposed. I was one of the ones calling for his head on a stake when it all went down.

    However, I'd much rather we became the team we all want without him.
