    Would be a pretty unique double to Coach two different Nations to consecutive Finals losses!
    I think he would do a better job than most, I am still convinced that he copped far more of the blame for last year than he deserved.
    Hate to see how Knuckles would have faired with a complete teams worth of elite players missing from this years Tour!
    I reckon the Reds would be pretty miffed about all this speculation though!?

    Knuckles......

    Seriously though, Chris Hickey (Aus Under 21's) and Phil Mooney (Aus Under 19's) have been doing pretty good things with development team projects (ie respective World Championship Tournaments) maybe one of them is ready to step up to the next level?
    With many young players in the Reds Squad, they may have the approach to bring out the best of the juniors?
    I think Nucifora's contract is pretty water tight if I recall from the Wallaby selection period.

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.
