I hope that the NZ government uses the same shaky economics that were used to dole out massive amounts of money for Americas Cup bullshit (which means far less to NZ's image, tourism, national identity etc), and buy us out of the private equity disaster, and separate professional rugby finances from community and schools rugby.

With Joe Schimdt standing down as Wallabies coach how likely are we to get him back as an ABs coach?

I'd love to see that happen. But not sure on the dynamics of him and Razor. We saw what a difference he made when he helped Foster.
I know it's only 1 year, but I'm second guessing Razor over him, if that was ever an option.I wonder why he is quitting? Anyone have any scoop? Seems a hard job to keep for some reason.

Family. His son has medical support needs and both his son and Joe's wife live in New Zealand so he doesn't want to be away from them as much as the wallabies coaching role requires.

Not much for a whaile at least. Apparently he offered to stay take an advisoary role with Wallabies.

But that depend if the new coach wants that - they'd be a moron if they didn't, but who knows

I’d love a chance to make a new joke for 2025
Why? Recycling's been a winner for you for years?

Article did say talks had stalled.
That means money.
RM would love to come back for the right $$$ I'm sure. But buying him out is expensive and NZR have no money.
Right decision to not pay, but I am very disappointed at how long this has taken and how much of a distraction this has been in the media. Coaches should be publicly backing their players, not squeezing one out for an overseas player who didn't set the world on fire at Test level.

Meantime, while Robertson and NZR fucked about chasing Mo'unga, they pissed about with Plummer so he decided to bugger-off.
Would be nice to have some sort of player development plan in place wouldn't it?

@MN5 its bit damning that it feels there are a few guys that seems to get worse the longer they are in the AB environment

Wonder if Joe Schimdt is a shoe in for the Wales job. If he wants to be closer to home, maybe he gets a role in NZ.

I got impression he took Wallabies job with some push from WR. If he was real keen I sure his son could get good care/help in Aus too, but Joe never intended (or I think was interested) in more than a caretaker role to help sort them out. Was a bit like WR was pretty keen on Aus getting 27 WC, as they needed help to get books sorted etc.

I suspect that they'd rather be at home near family support?

For sure mate, just saying if he was real keen etc. It seems he was struggling when coaching Ireland with the whole head coach gig at test level, was wearing him down a fair bit. Well that's what Hansen said, they pretty good mates.

He has at least stabilized the dumpster fire that was the Wallabies. Up to them not to screw up the next appointment. Kiss from the Reds would seem a decent hire. And Latham has been around for some time

Just read that Latham is off to coach in MLR, says he needs experience, and hopes to work his way up to Reds. He nowhere near an international coach.
