Everyone seems to be pointing the finger at Mick.

Discussions are amicable but we want to make sure everything is right.

He had absolutely no idea there was a breach, neither to my knowledge has any of the current management.

I’m shell-shocked, that’s all I’m prepared to say. Absolutely shell-shocked. I’m pretty upset at the moment, to be honest.

They absolutely have to play in the competition. It would be heartbreaking if they missed the top eight by four points or two points, wouldn’t it?

Good things take time and I’m just absolutely thrilled to bits to have an outstanding young man like Brian in charge of our national team.
