Two gone, two to go.

Hopefully Ryan is named as a selector too.

He should be if he is Forward coach taking Plumtrees role.
That will see a shake up in the Forward pack.

Plumtree and Moaar gonnnnnnnnnne.

Edit: I see it is being discussed in the rugby championship thread as well.

It will be interesting to see if they are chasing an attack coach (Panadol, Holland or even Brown?) or are planning to hand attack to Schmidt.

@gt12 Maybe Foster taking that role himself? Is it what he did for Hansen?

Yeah, it could be, which isn't a great sign unless they are bringing in Joe as a DOR above Fozzie.

Is this effective immediately? After the SA tour?

I can understand why Scott McLeod is being kept.
Our defense against Ireland was top notch.
They made virtually no meters against his sophisticated system.

From that media release:

The All Blacks have agreed to terms with Crusaders and Fiji forwards coach Jason Ryan, who will join the team at camp in Wellington next week.

@KiwiMurph said in All Blacks squad - The Rugby Championship:

I guess that rules out Leon as he's more of a backs and attack coach.

[KiwiMurph]

@Dice yeah sounds like Leon probably being lined up for All Blacks XV at the end of the year

I'd really like to know what the problem with Feek was. The scrum has been solid since he took over, and certainly no worse than under Cron. Ryan taking over the forwards has to be a huge improvement.

Easier to fire Feek than fire Foster clearly
