Fire Raelene Castle from Rugby Australia: more concerned about players politics than skill
The issue
Politics and sport don't mix! The Wallabies are failing because there's more concern about ensuring the players are politically correct than putting the best team onto the field. Castle started this culture and it must end with her departure. A team doesn't own its players' opinions: "free speech" means that people get to say whatever they like off the field (as long as it isn't a criminal offence) EVEN if we disagree with it. Putting up with views we don't like is the price we pay for being able to say WHAT WE WANT when others might want to SHUT US UP!
