Robbie Deans are you serious!!?

Question

I have just read an article where Robbie deans has backed the new laws of the Super14 and said he thinks the refs have got the laws near perfect. Are you watching the same game Robbie?? 
Then he goes on to say he is happy that refferees now realise they have the power to really influence the outcome of a match and that is good news to him becoz no longer Will the players and coaches push the agenda?? Robbie i think your stint in Australia may have made you a bit Retarded so i will forgive you for this ridiculous comment you have made about Referees dictating the outcome of games being good for the Super14. And a tip for your less than impressive Aussie side Maybe you shud try telling yourself and your players that you are actually meant to be the ones who go out there and win or loose the games. Just a hint!

There are no new laws in S14. All that has happened is that the interpretation of the laws has gone to what it was before the most recent changes. All the interpretation is doing is to follow the laws regarding the tackle. Prior to this defenders were able to tie the ball up in the ruck which (as the laws state) is a no no.Defenders were tying the ball up, players like Smith, Waugh, McCaw, Burger were all guilty of this and until this season got away with it. Bringing back rucking would have been the best answer.

Robbies a smart coach, remember hes coaching the Wobalies, they have different strengths to the ABs and the Yappies, and they addjust to new rule variations quickly, so its a positive for ausie rugby, even though we dont like them it will suit the assie teams.
