Finally the Aussies are on our side.
They're joining the party, accusing their very own Michael Cheika of deflecting the blame from himself and his team in what was another dismal loss to the All Blacks on Saturday night.
His post-match tirade, attacking both the All Blacks and the New
Zealand Herald for a cartoon which appeared in the Weekend Herald depicting him as a clown, has dominated the headlines - over and above the All Blacks astounding record or the Wallabies failings.
"Cheika is livid because the clown craze has finally hit New Zealand. The internet and electric shears are expected to follow soon," Daily Telegraph rugby columnist Richard Hinds wrote.
A sly dig at their small brother across the ditch, but he made no mistake of pulling the Aussie coach into the insult ring, calling on Cheika to forget the clowns, and win some rugby.
