[@drchrisdavies2941]

Great interview and panel, love the banter mixed in with some serious and insightful comments. As an Englishmen, much as I have enjoyed seeing the team develop and put in some great performances against the top teams, the issues he raised about the number of games played, particularly English rugby as well as the international calendar, makes for real challenges going forward. Club sides need their best players, the national team needs the best players, and the players need to have long enough careers to secure their futures. Given the shortening of playing time Eddie highlighted, down to 35 mins per game and the subsequent increase in the power game the injuries and stress on player bodies has dramatically increased. Much as I love the physical aspect of the game, I think some way of matching up international calendars and making sure that players are in good condition for international games by any changes in the rules, perhaps such as stopping the clock on scrum sets, would really help. I must say, I have never seen such a complete performance from England as against the ABs in that semi final, but can they do that consistently in the future, that will be the challenge!

[@willymacdonald7535]

👍. I’ll read what you write,very balanced.

[@uxpjsxu]

Fascinating comment as was Eddie's talking about bringing fatigue into the game. I remember watching rugby 20 years ago and then I stopped watching for about 10 years. One thing that shocked me now that I'm back into it is the sheer size of the players has increased massively. I got my answer as to why now. Fatigue is less of an issue. I have to say though, I do not mind the length of the games and I kind of like the 'freak show' of having massive players. I do however find myself thinking most people must be completely bored by all this stop start drawn out play.

[@drchrisdavies2941]

@@uxpjsxu - yes the size of players does have the potential to impact the length of careers, as one physio put it some years ago, the rehab of modern players after a game is Ike dealing with someone who has been in a serious car accident! I still think the key factor though is sheer fatigue based on the competing demands of club and country to maximise the value of their assets. Courtney Lawes commented on it while in Australia, discussing the length of the season, and that the players were desperate for a rest!!

[@uxpjsxu]

@@drchrisdavies2941 I love that comment about rehab being like dealing with a serious car accident. It's always interesting watching how emotional the players look during the anthems but I think part of it is that they truly are going into a real brutal battle arm in arm with their comrades. That comment hits home that point. Also interesting Lawes comment. In American football the NFL has 8+ months off which is really frustrating as a fan but completely understandable. These players need time to heal their battered bodies. Having said that, hats off to Lawes and the lads that came down here to Oz. Despite being rather tired they put an a great show. I was at the first match in Perth and it was a great spectacle!

In the early 2000s I thought the game should have a global comp of 3 divisions. I made my own tourn up when playing EA rugby on the playstation. D1 is a 10 team comp or 6 nations and rugby championship. All teams play each other once. Semi & final. 10th place team is relegated to 2nd division. D2 is 6 teams the PIs, Japan, Georgia and one other team. Top two play a final to move up into division 1. 6th team moves down into division 3. D3 is whatever with a final to move up into the 2nd division. Teams that lack funds to cope with the initial comp are aided by the IRB.

Lol it wasn't just because they were good though . But our selection was rubbish .. I guarantee if razor was the coach he would of made the hard decision's and droped players like . Read , Nepo , Crotty and bridge just to name a few . Read did nothing against England but get smashed . Yet we left Akira behind , as we did with laumape and lamb . They would have made more impact against England . Not picking tuipuloto over retalick based on form , letting Nepo start after his performance after his defense against South Africa . Made the same mistake against England on the try line giving England momentum. Picking jordie Barret for who knows why. And when he comes on he gives the ball away when we really needed to hold it because he lacks experience . Not starting Dane Coles when he's more aggressive than Cody Taylor . Who wanted to go around England in stead of through . South Africa won up front . We failed up front . I'm happy for England . But Hansen has never been a great coach . But look how the all blacks trended when Wayne Smith left ? . They declined . And sadly I want to see the all blacks fail . Because I know in my heart the true coach should be Scott Robertson .

I love Aussie rules, but two Aussie rules sides in each of our two rugby states must have been detrimental to rugby. I regret that change; for rugby (union) is a great great game and being at the top of world rugby was something for all Australians to be proud of.

[@tsandi9927]

Eddie is moaning about the physicality that destroyed his world cup dreams. Classic English mindset, if someone else has an advantage then we must change the game to nullify that advantage. If we have an advantage then that's just the nurture of things

[@jonnybaynham1689]

Apart from the Italy game where they exploited the offside law so much that rugby stopped being rugby, name another time England pressured world rugby to change the rules for their benefit.

[@alanb9443]

Oh yer cause England don’t rely on a power game and are all about skill. That’s obviously why Eddie wants to de power the game. I mean England is known for its free flowing and fast paced rugby.

[@josephconradie5935]

How about at the breakdown if everyone is off their feet and the ball somehow ends up in the opposition's hands penalise them for infringement

[@ayewhatthe]

Tsandi Eddie has been saying this for years. Prior to the RWC and he’s right. The NRL is benefiting heaps! Are you worried SA won’t be able to keep up?

The Six Nation's is the most exciting and commercially successful tournament outside of world cups why should they change?

[@TheVolksDragon]

That must be why 14 of the Manu Samoan team at the World Cup were born and raised in NZ, and another 10 been there since pre-school age. So 24 Kiwis. Plus 6 Aussies, and ONE player from Samoa. ONE. All the facts are in the squad lists to check. So who's poaching from who again, especially given NZ also is the 3rd most 'home grown' nation in Rugby, behind SA and Arg. Tonga aren't much better when it comes to poaching out of the NZ/Aus system. Fiji are the only true Island team now. If Eddie wants to point fingers, maybe the increasing amount of born and bred Fijians in the Wallabies is where he should be aiming his jokes. Honestly, the people who believe that old myth never let the facts, which are out there to check, get in the way of trying to explain why a nation that loses players and coaches constantly, still has a 90% success rate. It''d be funny if it wasn't so sad.
