I thought the article was good and spelt out a few home truths including the travelling circus. Drop the one eted anti aussie sentiments and Cockrill is correct. There is a difference in being prudent and being tight.
Astute observation ...
Whether people want to listen to the message or not its not going to change if anything its going to get louder.
Cockerill is simply saying the IMO blinding obvious ... Your current performance pertaining to metrics will see you loose your licence ..
Football a few years ago moved well beyond turn up and pay your bills... as simple as I can every team has done the hard yards its not something special to the Nix's...
The ball is in the hands of Nix management and NZ fans....
