Foster, Robertson etc

Sure Ryan might fix our pack, but he sure as shit ain't gonna fix the defence that McLeod is in charge of.
Maybe fozzie will give the ABs some attacking spark like his Chiefs used to have, but then that still relies on us scoring more points than our sieve-like defence allows in.

@taniwharugby Tamati Ellison was an awesome defense coach at Saders, bring him in or an NRL coach.

@taniwharugby said in Foster must go / Assistant Coach changes:
@SBW1 of all the media articles and speculation about who might go, McLeod has barely been mentioned, clearly someone thinks he is doing a good job!
The opposition ?

@Kirwan said in Foster must go / Assistant Coach changes:
I hope Ryan is allowed to make actual changes to how the tight five play. I also hope if he has a say in selection he rises above provincial bias because Taylor desperately needs to be dropped.
Also, if Moat was responsible for the shithouse attack, hopefully Foster can make a positive change here too.
I think not, obviously, so hopefully they are looking some out sense quickly.
Well someone has to take Plumtrees spot on panel. and as assistant coach I guess it would be Ryan., and if Ryan isn't allowed to makre required xhanges he wouldn't be there would he?

If Ryan is stepping up to the Forward coaching job replacing Plumtree,Then it would make sense he takes Plumtrees position as the other selector.
But it is Foster and NZR so probably could be anyone then. -
Scott Robertson
Jason Ryan
Leon MacDonald
Joe Schmidt selector and analysis.Just do it for crying out loud.

@BerniesCorner But if Robertson doesn't want the job now?

I'm not convinced they even asked him. But if he turned them down, there's always a danger the fish heads stop asking

It's the Ireland series hooker selection all over again.

@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.
I hope they think and plan it through well. Taking MacDonald out stuffs the momentum the Blues have made. Taking Ryan from the Crusaders will impact them too. They did the same with Plumtree and Canes and now he’s out.

The term Newshub used was that he "wanted the full runway" (i.e., 4 years before a RWC).

But that was just rumour, I don't think they asked because they haven't really considered ditching foster

He can afford to be patient. If Foster miraculously turns things around the job will be his in 2024. If not the job will be his sooner.

I’m surprised Macleod survived, our defence was clueless against the Irish.
