Don't Worry. It Can Be Fixed....

I know it all looks bad at the moment but don't unfriend your Kiwi friends just yet (as if they have any right to get cocky).

It's all about the motivation.

THE JERSEY
Ignore for the moment my previous ranting about tight jerseys and the lack of desirability inherent in their design. For some reason the players seem to like them. For that reason they should be taken away until the Team starts playing like they deserve to wear them again. Instead, they should be made to wear something.....less desirable. I was intitially thinking pink and tight but exposure to the French Super Union (or whatever the f**k it's called) indicates todays player quite likes looking like a novelty condom so that's out.

My School Zone jersey was brown and white with 3/4 sleeves (I think it was some kind of povo public school anti-theft inititive). I reckon the boys would ruck enthusiastically into the gates of hell to get out of those horrendous abominations. They should wear them till the Quarters. If they don't make the quarters they get written to the contracts for a year.

TATTS
 Normally I would have no time at all for the tuff stickers but if they are going to be stamped all over every spare inch of flesh then their apparent desirablility should be harnessed for good. Every result should be tattooed on the arm of each player. So unless you WANT AUS V USA LOST 34-12
printed on your bicep next to the gothically printed names of your 3.5 children.......LIFT YOUR GAME.

BANDANAS
Get them all pissed and bet the lot of them - Win the Cup or you have to wear a ridiculous red bandana until some other Australian Team does. (It's the only explanation I can think off. Who was it Fitzy?  Kearnsey? Grant Fox? The Kafe? Who?)

PUT A KIWI IN CHARGE. AND MAKE ANOTHER ONE OUR CHIEF PLAYMAKER...
No. Wait. We already did that.
