[QUOTE="RoosTah, post: 770326, member: 12207"] No, it means that the judges recognized that being in charge of an awesome team that has already won everything and then having them keep doing that isn't the toughest test of a coach's skills. As I said before, Chris Anderson, one of the worst coaches in Rugby League, managed to coach the Kangaroos to 3-0 series whitewash over Great Britain a few years back when the poms thought they had a shot. It turned out that having masters like Lockyer, Johns, Fitler, and a forward pack with guys like Webke and Civonenceva kinda made his job pretty easy. When the bloke was in charge of an average team they couldn't win sh#t, but using your logic he was an awesome coach of the Kangaroos just because they won. That gives him undue credit for the results of an astonishingly talented team, and the same applies with Hansen. [/QUOTE]
