I only come on the Fern because Hansen stopped reading my emails.
I wish Mitchell and Deans had stopped reading your emails back in 02.
2002 was all part of the grand plan to win back the Bledisloe in 2003. As Henry did, Hansen is still riding their coat tails.
I like it, they completely foxed it, playing boring stodgy rugby based on the Cantablacks and then a year later unleashing the Blues gameplan (that they had secretly told Graham Henry to start practising) on Oz.

We all know that in the ABs it was Mauger and Umaga that made Carlos, Rok, Howlett and Mils look flash. I blame Deans for those 50 point wins.

@mariner4life all put in perspective when winning 3Ns and Bledisloe in 2003. When it actually meant something.

indeed. when we got a new team and a new plan. 2002 was deleted like a bad selfie. We just didn't go far enough in the end, more cantabores needed to be rissoled.

Was Wayne Smith in charge in 2002? Or did Bitchell take over then? All I can recall is him trying to lecture Cullen on the mechanics of holding and passing the ball, and trying to justify his non-selection in the 2003 cup side by saying he was not even the 4th or 5th best 15 in NZ that year. What a fucking carnt. I still haven't forgiven him for that

The worst thing he did was sending Jerry Collins out to face the media after that Oz loss. Jesus the system was broken back then - how on earth did that charlatan get the AB coach role?

Look, no one looks back on the Mitch era fondly, but, he did get the Bledisloe back. Higher credentialed coaches didn't do that.
And posting 50 points away back to back in the Tri-Nations when it was actually good? The mid-part of 2003 was pretty sweet.
He also brought in a few guys who went on to be pretty decent All Blacks.

In all seriousness, the big fear at the time was that NZ forward play was regressing badly and Mitchell was seen as someone with solid forward-coaching credentials, off the back of his work with England. I reckon that was a big driver and all of the other irritating details, such as a lack of head coaching experience, seemed to get swept to one side. And so began the Magical Mystery Tour .....

Oddly enough his time in charge saw us get bossed by an Oz forward pack.

They are all too busy on their own thread giving each other reach-arounds because Ben Darwin's computer says they are the absolute besterest ever and gave them an award.

Does it show the demographic of the Fern that there is an awful of angst towards 99/03/07, with the dominant Cantabs the easy scapegoats, and yet the 90-94 period, and the Auckland guys get away scot free these days? I feel like if this forum was around in 96 there would be a few other names getting cursed.
Too long ago? Too faded from memory?
