It was a matter of when not if, and today, Gary Kemble resigned from his post as Kiwi Coach.
This is absolutely the right thing to do as the Kiwi’s were no chance to win the Rugby League World Cup with him on board.
Now that Kemble is out of the way we need a new coach. It’s essentially a choice between two men - Brian McClennan and Wayne Bennett. My choice is Bluey who has proven himself in the job. Likewise Bennett is a master coach - the best in the business, but the advantage Bluey brings is his ability to communicate and motivate the Kiwi players.
It’s also worth noting that the Kiwi coach no longer has to reside in New Zealand - a stupid rule that was introduced simply to get rid of Gary Freeman as coach a few years back. Sigh, the NZRL seems to be an appalling administrator of sport.
Hopefully the NZRL will use what little brains they seem to have and phone up Brian McClennan ASAP.
