@Nepia ...and I get to have the fun of supporting a Chiefs Head Coach!
First one since Mitch!
The only coach of the Chiefs who I've supported in the Bledisloe is coaching the other team. Shit.

Yeah, we better win as I don't want to dislike Rennie.

This year is a write off, so he has the opportunity to try something new. Will be disappointed if the team is too safe.
Players like Clarke and Sotutu should be starting, and Iโd like to see a clear direction for six.
New Coach in his first match? No chance on not being safe. Who would do that? That would be so arrogant and I would like that but surely SURELY he's not that silly.
Have to pick the best players and those in form.
Not necessarily, you have to select the best combinations for the team. Sometimes that is reverting to type. I think it will be safe as houses.
Thatโs what Iโm predicting as well, I donโt think he has it in him to take a selection risk.
The kinds that gave us Wilson and Lomu at 19.
Let's be frank - Lomu at 19 was terrible. Lomu at 20 on the other hand was out of this world.

But would have Lomu at 20 have been that without Lomu at 19? I'm not so sure.

Nothing wrong with his attacking skills at 19, he still trampled a few frogs.

First points to Rennie for the coaches gig.
Good morning Mr Obvious
I think most of us here were saying that for quite some time - we got the wrong ex cheifs coach!
-
My main concern with Fozzie is he has been in that Hansen environment for so long I wonder if he knows much different. I suspect 'he' could see what Hansen was doing 'wrong' and thought he had the answers. If that first game is any guide, then it might be a little more difficult than he anticipated. I'll reserve judgement until after a few games but that first one looked no different to the last few years.
-
I believe he is the first AB coach in history to have neither a winning or losing record after their first test in charge. Good on Ian ๐
Iโm willing to support him as long as he reads my starting XV emails like Steve did.

@ACT-Crusader so we can blame you for Barrett over Cane then. ๐
