Conservative radio shock Alan Jones has predictably decided to not go easy on Raelene Castle today, following last night’s news she was standing down as CEO of Rugby Australia.
Jones had been one of Castle’s harshest critics throughout her doomed appointment that saw her attempting to bail water out of a sinking ship that been dragged through icebergs by a string of North Shore parachute-pullers for several decades.
Castle now joins a long list of other powerful women whose careers came to an end early after having arrows fired at their shins by the talkback heavyweight.
“It’s an appointment that shouldn’t have been made,” Jones said on 2GB radio, obviously not willing to gently tip toe around the sensitivities most people would show to someone who appears humble in defeat.
“She knows nothing about the game!”
“It’s like putting someone to become the first violinist in the Sydney Symphony Orchestra who can’t read music.”
While it is not yet known which violinist Alan Jones thinks would have been able to handle that brain-dead happy clapper’s decision to send the homosexuals to hell, it seems the on-field performances in Australian rugby are also a cause for frustrations for both fans and the board.
As a former Wallabies coach from an era before the Pacific Revolution, Alan Jones is just one of many silverware winners that can’t understand why Australian rugby isn’t as successful as it was when our players had Olympic standard training facilities and the All Blacks were mostly white PE Teachers who lived off potatoes and Waikato Draught.
It is not sure who the next scapegoat may be for the dismal state of Rugby Australia, as commentators continue to overlook the issues of ‘cattle’ – and that fact that the entire code has basically forgotten the working class grassroots of Western Sydney and South Brisbane – opting to scout mostly from six elite private schools made up of kids who grew up in homes where they were allowed to wear shoes on the couch.
While the board is yet to outline their new direction, any underprivileged kids who wanna be a Wallaby have been told that their best avenue to wearing the jersey is to go viral in a 50 second high school football video.
