    I was eavesdropping. People standing in line for a beer talk. AND THEY WEREN'T EVEN WHISPERING.

    Was there something of value in your previous post that I missed?

    I understand that the cost of bringing Cron it was covered by the IRB and that 6 members of the Blues and the Blues head coach were in attendance. Not sure of the other regions but I think they were similiarly represented. So he was coaching the coaches as well as coaching most, if not all the top players in the country.

    The fact that people on this forum are complaining about the best scrum coach in the world coming to instruct national players, coaches and shadow coaches sums up the bulk of opinions by these individuals. In one post they will crap on wax lyrical about the dreadful state of Canada's scrum vs. Georgia et al and then have the audacity to turn around 2 months later and bitch about RC being proactive.

    What do you guys actually stand for??? You remind me of the link below...

    To the players who read this forum, don't listen to these clowns as they are simply a loud minority using a medium that makes them feel important. The bulk of the rugby community in Canada respect your sacrifices, hard work and fully support all that you are doing for the game! Keep it up and ignore the anonymous white noise.

    Post of the year!

    Typical RC professional approach, word of mouth at a pub. Must have been at the Steamwhistle having a couple of pints with jarhead. The only thing you missed is that it would have been beneficial to have a backs coach come in with Cron and not Barnes.

    Cron is the guru and the scrum coaches will learn the modern game of forward play and not that old English school boy channel three crap that happened in Argentina.

    I don't see any complaints about Cron, the issue is bringing in two scrum coaches and that is overkill.

    There was no plan and this event occurred by happen chance - just like shameless over hearing a conversation in a pub.

    Hey RS, when is your next letter coming out glorifying the plan.

    Just in case your interested, Barnes is unofficially the new Assistant NSMT coach and that is why he was at the scrum camp..
