@Victor-Meldrew Do you think he wants to be a head coach? He'd be my pick if he does.

I haven't a clue. But who wouldn't want to coach the All Blacks and not just be a mentor? Persuade him to take over until RWC2023 for starters

He'd be a safe pair of hands and then be able hand over to Rennie, Jesus, Joseph or another assistant.

Like the thought of Jesus being an assistant

Jesus?

Jesus Crobinson. He's a saviour according to some.

What the CEO Robinson ?

Tim

@Jailbreak7 He'd have the best water bottles.

@BartMan Smith did exceptionally well as a head coach at Super rugby level

Is this just a thread to vent? It’s a copy of every thread for the past year 😗

You must have mistaken this for the 'Above it All' thread.

@Tim Schmidt and MacDonald

MacDonald was awesome outcoaching Razor in the SR final. Oh wait....

BartMan

@Stag was meaning at AB level he was not flash. He got 2 titles at the Chiefs in the background too, along with the 2 as head of the Crusaders, his only real head coaching success?

BartMan

@PecoTrain yes, maybe one nepotism appointment, after WINNING a RWC is acceptable. But after losing the semi,.it should have been a new broom sweeping clean. It wasn't, and we're now here, lowest point in AB rugby ever.

@MN5 that was the only good thing to.cpmw.out of the test.

The fact this result brings @BartMan out if hibernation says it all.

Who next, @Red-Beard ? Any others ?

Davidav?

Kirwan

Good the drums are beating to replace Foster.

@Duluth said in Foster must go:

The realistic option is Schmidt

He starts his AB contract right now. So no other logistics needed.

Does he want a head coach role though?

My guess is he'd accept an interim role

Those drums need to beat a fuck load harder

So it's been brought up on the roar, there's a presser tomorrow 9 am, is that standard? I think it is but please tell me it's not

This will be the NZRU being super organised and naming the squad to tour SA Got to get those tickets booked early to get the best deal.

NZ rugby....leading the way in getting value for money 🤣

I’m going to bet that one (Moaar) or maybe two (Moaar, Macleod) assistants get the ass, but that Fozzie stays on.

Will they even be that brave?

@PecoTrain welcome back fella. Foster has bought on a Fern reunion tonight!

But Foster chose them. And he hasn't sought to replace them. So again, his decision making is called into question.

If the NZRU force him to change his assistants, what is to say the replacements fare any better if the man at the top is the handbrake?

Didn't the Waikato/Chiefs fans used to say that Foster had his favourites and no matter how useless they played, they were nigh on undroppable?

He is loyal, at worst. With players and staff.

Deja vu.

Firstly, I’m not defending Foster - he should go - but I’m also not convinced that NZ rugby will do the right thing. Robinson has run the place into the ground so I cant see them admitting they got the Foster appointment wrong. However, I wonder whether they think that a few assistant heads might keep the public happy.

Someone should get Steve Tew on the phone and give a penny for his thoughts 😁
