Surely Jono Gibbes will get the job next year?

The logical choice amongst the current coaching group. Hill and Randle are assistant coaches.

What to make of this...
McMillan was contracted with the NZR until 2026, but they have taken the decision to release him early from that contract so that he could take up the offer of a three-year deal at Munster.
They've realised prospective All Black coaches need OS experience. The sooner he gets that on his resume, the sooner he can come back.

Yup definite positive. Good luck to him in breaking the Chiefs drought this year, but yes, good to see him getting a feel for northern rugby as opposed to resting on his laurels down here.

@antipodean although a 2 yr contract woulda been better...

Do we want Jono? He's in charge of what right now
Forwards/lineout. Gibbes is only contracted for 2025.
If you bring in a new coach that often means new assistants too. They (current assistant coaches) were told a few weeks back.

My wife's boyfriends husband said he heard that Mark Hammett might be coming to help improve the culture.
You must have interesting social gatherings.
