At least we know where were at.
For me it has to be Wane. He's not afraid to ruffle feathers, would instantly add a bit of toughness and based over here would see the players week in week out.
It may sound disrespectful, but he's simplify our plays and get us playing to our strengths instead of apeing a style that we cant copy.
Agree. He’s available and his style should be easier to replicate at international level than some others.
Also, there’s a side to me that just utterly hates seeing us beaten rather tamely and whilst I get you can’t have a modern day Barrie Mac elbowing players in the head anymore, I desperately want to see more fight at GB/England level. I want to see more runs like the one Philbin put in. I want to see everytime there’s a slight scuffle that every player is ready to tvvat an Aussie if need be. I think we’re too pally and often too respectful of the Aussies. I don’t just wanna beat them, I want us to fck em up. I think we’re missing the kind of obvious passion that gets both players and fans excited.
