Waratahs-Brumbies game impacts Wallabies coaching future
The recent Super Rugby match between the Waratahs and Brumbies was an exciting game. It showcased the talents of coaches Dan McKellar and Stephen Larkham. The game saw intense competition and thrilling moments. Rugby Australia might be hesitant to promote either coach to the Wallabies job due to their rivalry. Phil Waugh, the head of Rugby Australia, has mentioned the importance of "continuity" in finding a new coach. This idea might favor certain candidates like Les Kiss, but McKellar and Larkham's competition could also influence their decision. The Reds recently performed well against the Highlanders. Their captain, Harry Wilson, commented on their set-piece coach, Zane Hilton, noting his intense dedication. Hilton’s strategies played a significant role in their victory. In the Waratahs-Brumbies game, the Brumbies were frustrated by a try being disallowed. This decision was influenced by recent changes to the TMO (Television Match Official) rules, which seemed to confuse the match officials. Critics argue that the TMO should not review plays from earlier phases. The Crusaders are looking strong as title contenders, having performed well against the Blues. James O’Connor played a key role in their strategy. Meanwhile, Harry Wilson is likely to take a break soon due to his heavy playing load.
