All Black Coach - Ian Foster

@gt12 I realise that.
I mean after being belted last week they have rung changes and should have refocused.

@nzzp shades of Perth...
if they pick themselves up off the floor again, as they did post-Perth, then a few reps will be refurbished.
It shouldn't though, as this game isn't against England. Last week wasn't game one of a series to find the best team in the World. Smashing Wales (if that happens) doesn't make up for last week's embarrassment. They should all continue to wear that - if 'learnings' happen, neat, but that pay off comes next time we play England and any other team in a game that has meaning for both teams.
I hope we start playing England a lot more regularly. It's a travesty that the strongest NH union barely ever plays the strongest SH union.

Yeah if only there were some sort of round robin yearly competition....

Ild like to see Joseph and Brown with Mcleod as Defence. for me, Joseph and Brown are ready to take the ABs into the next phase of their evolution. Robertson is just a clone of the current system who is not as inventive as I believe is needed for the new coach. The world has caught up and if we do not get a coach who can mold and take the ABs into a new era we could be playing catch-up for a while.

I'd be pleased if Cotter applied. Anyone heard any indications of his willingness?
welcome back Cotter and not the dodgy 70's version
no bias here from a Bay perspective
That was a great show.

I'm assuming you mean when we won the shield under vern?

Yeah, sorry, that’s just my frustration coming out there.

I went for Joseph and I hope that means we would get Brown as well.
On a side note. I was shocked to see how many people were calling for Foster takeover, in my news feed today. All people I thought knew something about rugby too.:face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

Next AB coach?
Just went back and looked at your list and realistically (with the exception of the obvious attempt at humour) there's no-one I'd reject completely.
And that includes Fozzie.
There is a few I'd prefer without much objection at all (Robertson, Joseph, Gatland, Rennie) , and there's a few that I have reservations about (Foster, Schmidt, Brown, Cotter, even Jones).
But whoever gets it I want a to feel refreshed and renewed.
