Stand and deliver

Wallabies legend Tim Horan, writing for the Courier Mail, believes it is time for Wallabies coach Robbie Deans to start delivering.

"In any business or organisation, when a new CEO or managing director takes over, they are usually given three to four years to turn it around.

Robbie Deans is in his fourth season as coach of the Wallabies and, as far as supporters are concerned, it is time for him to deliver results.

It's fair to say he is not under pressure for his job from the ARU but there is certainly a huge expectation from the Australian rugby community for the Wallabies to start producing big results and to start seeing the big trophies.

I am a big admirer of Deans. I believe he is the best man for the job, and has done amazing things for Australian rugby at many levels."
