  The Roar - Your Sports Opinion — Authority: 455
  What do we make of the NSW Waratahs coach, Chris Hickey, being surprised at the NZRU’s instruction to their Super 14 franchise to play more ‘positive’ rugby to restore the game’s popularity? Not much, in fact. Hickey’s rejection of a similar policy for the Waratahs suggests to me that he has lost the plot ...

  The Roar - Your Sports Opinion — Authority: 455
  Whilst it has been documented by that the Waratahs struggle to win games with Jonathon Kaplan as referee, can the same be said for the Wallabies?
