Shag not goooonne? (After RWC 2019)

If he's got the desire and he's got the results, fair game. I've never been a big fan of change-for-change sake, and if ABs do win their 3rd in a row, and as I say he still has the desire, I don't see how you push a head coach out the door for winning.

Let's put our current troubles into perspective. We're missing our best lock, our best 10, our top three 15s (Bender, Jordie and Israel), arguably our best 6 (JK). Our best 13 has been intermittently injured in Crotty, our best hooker has spent most of the season out with concussion and is only getting back into shape now. Most teams in world rugby would be struggling, we've won both trophies on offer and drawn a Lions series we had a great chance to win. And in exchange we've seen a bunch of new young ABs come onto the scene

You missed our two best props as well.

Oh I see you're one of those who thinks the sky won't fall any minute?

@nepia I don't think Franks is that far ahead of the other options. Handy prop but does some dumb shit.
Say that two more times and @Red-Beard might return? (To smite you).

Funny people saying that if Hansen gets results and stays on that he should get new assistants.
I guess I see it that if “he” gets the results it will be in large part due to how his assistants also perform. Hansens hardly running a dictatorship where the plebs just fall into line. The assistants from all reports have massive input.
Things might seem a little indifferent right now but again in this era of 4 year cycles we often see this throughout periods.
Remember when all the rotation, massive squads, “cheapening of the jersey” was happening under Henry. He was lambasted for trying stuff and it did produce some mixed results. But it was all within the cycle.
I quite like the current coaching group. They are finding out some things about the new players whilst trying to build experience with others.
