Personal skills I think mainly,A bit of not wanting to fit into the teams patterns I believe.
He just seemed to not be a team player. -

Will the new All Black coaches have a role in choosing their Super franchise coaching successors?
I wouldn't have thought so. The teams' respective boards have the opportunity to stuff that up

Joseph might have been approached, but it tells you where the money is.
why would he want to return
Moving to a Japanese club feels like a money move. If he wanted to advance his test coaching experience I would have expected him to head to the NH

As per the post above, maybe the whole team up of JJ and Brown go somewhere.
I think Scotland are the main team still unconfirmed and I reckon they would be a great fit to Scotland's 'DNA". Hard forward play combined with adventurous backs. -
Mitchell looks to be out of the equation (if he was ever in it)

Why do I have a suspicion that the Blues and Crusaders will get top coaches and Canes will just get someone like Gibbes?
Because the Canes are short sighted and usually promote internally even when the coach being promoted isn't deserving. If Gibbes gets selected we are probably stuck with him for the next 3-4 years unfortunately.
I hope it doesn't eventuate and they actually consider other applicants but I have the same gut feeling that the board or whoever is recruiting for the new role will be happy doing as little work as possible.
I'd rather back a young coach like Tamati Ellison than someone like Chris Gibbes who literally hasn't proved anything.
I do however question the NZ Herald article above. Last week they had only kicked off the recruiting process and mentioned there were about 10 interested parties, but now the NZH are reporting Gibbes is the clear favourite. To me it sounds like they are simply making assumptions, so I hope they are wrong.

Never mind. It could be worse.
