What's Jake White doing these days?

You can't be serious, Jake White? Does everyone have selective memory that ignores the outright uselessness of White except for a early Tri Nations title and a cheap RWC win.

been to more games than half of the supporters on this forum

How does this make your argument any more valid?

I have never missed a home game, have been to away games on the east coast.

Would that make my argument more valid then yours?

A little off topic but as good here as anywhere:

Was looking on his management website (Fordham) and found Mitch's speaking topics.

The purpose of Leadership

As leaders of the program the hunger for improvement must be sustained

No hiding place for leaders

Where does pressure come from and how do you handle it?

The Key to success is constant learning and evolving

The requirement is Growth

Its actually the art of coaching

What is really meant by the word ‘Empowerment’?
The central element to success is the motivation of the players

The benefits of experience

What is the difference being a Head Coach
The Ireland, England, and All Black stories of different leadership?

The Emirates Western Force clean sheet of paper

The Emirates Western Force Leadership phase 2.

Ultimately I/we should be judging the coach on where he can take the team in the future. Rather than just pointing out past mistakes.
Mitchells time has been somewhat of a rollercoaster something that he must be in part responsible for. It's impossible to know if anyone else could have done any better under the same circumstances. It could have been worse with someone else too.
But he should not be placed above question and criticism.

thats got to look good on any CV, cheap rugby world cup win!! as opposed to a cheap rugby world cup loss ?......did he not also coach the SA under 21 side to victory in their world cup?.......

... Then there's never any such thing as a permanent coach.... not that there would be such a thing...

Yes there is....our esteemed Coach....

[pieter blackie]

I still say: Thanks for staying Mitch

[brokendown gunfighter]

I didnt think he was part of the decision

[GIGS20]

If not Mitch I reckon (not endorsing or dissing it, just the way I think it'll go) Richard Graham will take over from Mitch, the reins will be passed over sometime between 2011 and 2012 depending on the team's performances

I support the Force ergo I support John Mitchell....

[slomo]

there you go.

if you cant handle the fact that mitchell is staying. feel free to support another S14 team. or jump onto melbourne next year.

he is our coach and no amount of bitching will change it.

Soon hes not our coach and no amount of bitching will change that.
