We have players that can be physical, fast, athletic, and tactical, just not
coached right from a young age to have the skill, talent, play intelligence,
get the right coaches in all the necessary positions, and New Caledonia can
be a super power!!!

The Dutch myth that is!!!

Italians are the third largest demographic in Australia, so he would be well
supported here, and a good portion of the current setup have Italian
heritage, making any transition even easier, in fact a solid portion have
played or are playing in Italy.

It won't happen because its pure speculation at the moment, but I don't mind
all the big names being linked to the Australian hot seat, because looking
ahead, a big name is absolutely necessary!!!

The 2006 census revealed that 4.29% of the Australian population has
Italian ancestry.
