    I thought they were trying to appear as though those grapes were the sweetest thing they've ever eaten.

    The QLD line up on paper looks pretty formidable. Like how they can retain Genia and resign Cooper as well as pulling Thompson and Hunt out of their back pockets. Can't wait to see how they perform under RG.

    It's called ARU funding. That's "All Richard's Unlimited" funding

    My personal favorite is the way he needs to cut half the team and replace them with "better" players when his comments on leaving the force were that it would be nice to work with players who know how to win.

    In hindsight, I think McKenzie was lucky to leave when he did, it looks like his success was predicated upon building a plan which built upon a few strengths and papered over some pretty significant weaknesses until the other teams found him out. It looks like he was being found out in the end, but managed to pin a fair bit of it on Braindead Dick and bounce off to the Wallabies, where he looks to have done pretty much the same thing.

    Now Dick is riding a slow train to nowhere with no plan or ability to turn it around.....on the way, he's signing some big rugby names (presumably on massive dollars) to point out the sights along the way.
