[QUOTE="nickdnz, post: 722768, member: 38640"] To be fair, Deans [I][B]did [/B][/I]put up with their crap. I don't remember him ever dropping a player for poor behaviour. He did get rid of a lot of experienced players, but none of them (maybe barring Giteau who has been a divisive figure in every Ozzy SR team) were disruptive. George Smith and Stirling Mortlock (who to be fair was getting past it) were probably two of the most professional figures in Australia. I would probably argue McKenzie was probably more of a disciplinarian - but just lost out because things were out of control. And now Cheika seems to not really give a toss about his players behaviour anyway, going as far to say that "he's not a social worker". [/QUOTE]
