FFS not a single bit of decent opposition and they sign him off - 2020 was an annus horribilis but that's OK. Bunch of incompetent fluffybunnies
-
@kiwimurph I honestly could not see them doing anything different, the current environment has made his job even tougher.
That said, woulda thought they coulda waited until post TRC to give the illusion that results mattered.

@stargazer you'd like to think, that had we lost to Fiji and Aus they wouldn't have re-signed him.
But I've been of the view the decision was made weeks/months ago to re-sign him (or not, turns out it was to re-sign)
What happens if we lose to SA, Arg, Wales?
His record is shakey already, and makes NZR look unprofessional again re-signing him, while he still has half a dozen or so games to win/lose
-
@kiwimurph It's the pretence there's an actual process that irritates. No waiting to see if losing to Argentina is the highlight of his team's coaching capacity.

There used to be an April Fools thread somewhere once.

To be fair there's no real options, after such little rugby with covid interruptions it's hard to make a convincing case otherwise, though admittedly 2020 was a nightmare season.
Regardless if we look at the options Gatland crashed with the Lions, Rennie's wallbies are just as bad if not worse than their predecessors...his main opposition don't appear to be any better...
-
They should give Robertson the reigns of the All Blacks XV, let him pick all the young fringe ABs, and give them games the next two years. Many players in that squad will go on to become All Blacks and play the 2027 RWC.
That would make it a smooth transition.

I’m not surprised,
I didn’t think they would sack him which would make it look like they are the basket cases for appointing him then sacking him so soon after . And I can kind of get that , stability and all that .
But I still think they got it wrong in the first place .

not surprised
at least there is a chance the world will be back to normal for his replacement
the only thing worse would be someone 'better' coming in but all the covid shit ruins their tenure

The thing is, if we win the World Cup he will most likely be reinstated again. Ffs.

More than happy with that happening, I will eat humble pie and apologise

Canes4life just wrote weirdest post I have seen in ages.
And I bet if they go on a record winning streak they will lengthen it even longer for crying out loud! No Brains that NZR
