Where the hell are the leaks ?there is a faint chance they are actually running a genuine selection process you know...
-
@nostrildamus Yeah that is what I am hoping for but after years of coming on here for the gossip it is hard to get used to.

This article cites an interview with Ian Foster https://www.planetrugby.com/news/ian-fosters-verdict-on-all-blacks-vacancy-and-issues-sure-of-it-prediction-after-scott-robertsons-sacking
“It’s Jamie Joseph’s job, I’m sure of it, then it’s either Brown with him or they are going to chase an experienced coach to do it with him for 18 months and then probably go to Tony Brown after the World Cup.”

@allblackfan2 would be a reasonable outcome that I think will help with trajectory.

jesus fucking christ. what a shit show.

Steve Hansen and Ian Foster have been asked to apply for the job according to the NZ Herald
Their subeditors all got fired and the headline stinks. The article says this:
New Zealand Rugby has approached both Sir Steve Hansen and Ian Foster to gauge interest in applying for the vacant role of All Blacks head coach, the Herald understands.
Given the requirements are
a) New Zealanders, with
b) International Coaching experience...and as that list would be veyr short, I can understand everyone on the list being approached to 'gauge interest'. A shitty paper turns that into ' asked to apply'.
For. Fucks. Sake.

@nzzp not according to one coach last week who says ye qualified but not been asked

@Donsteppa said in All Blacks - New Coach Selection:
That said, one or both of those two in a Wayne Smith type of role wouldn't be a bad thing
considering their standing on here, it's obviously been a bad couple of years if this is being floated unchallenged
-
we would be the laughing stock of world rugby if we went back to foster after pretty publicly not renewing his contract and announcing Razor as the future...and if im honest i was worried hansen was running out of ideas towards the end of his run....so unless hes gone away and renewed his bag of tricks.....
-
@Kiwiwomble Not only had his bag of tricks been emptied but he was quoted as saying that Foster was pretty much coaching the team in 2018/2019.
This was an attempt at pumping up Foster's tyres in order to influence the decision on who would replace Hansen.
So, no thanks to either of them. -
I'd welcome Steve Hansen being involved. Ideally for me as a selector or a mentor figure to a younger Head Coach.
I wouldn't be against Ian Foster as an Assistant
Coach as well given his experience and knowledge. I thought he did a great job with the backline between 2012 and 2019. -

So, no thanks to either of them.We got smoked at RWC 19 so if that was Fozzie's work, yeah nah

Maybe just fluffing from the Herald.
According to the article @allblackfan2 posted. Foster's said he doesn't expect to be doing any work with NZR. But who knows?

"Would" ? We pretty much are.

Sorry mate, don't agree with these performance manager roles or Director of Rugby or whatever, they just another shit job that shouldn't be needed.
NZR have tried it once with Wayne Smith, and both coaches he worked with lost their jobs FFS!
We seem to be trying to get like NFL etc, where you have a coach for every f***en thing.
Next we'll want a nose picking coach they way we going!!
