    And now it's official:

    Much easier (and more lucrative) situation than coming back and trying to start at the bottom of the ABs setup or even back to Super Rugby. Never say never but I think the ABs have passed him by

    Who cares? A sullen taciturn coach is yesterday’s man as far as nz rugby is concerned. You not only need to be able to coach you also have to be a bit likeable imo. Following the Mitchell debacle.

        If Fozzie gets the gig I am fairly certain he will be in the AB set up in an elevated assistant role (Wayne Smith) by the 2021 EOYT at the latest.

          Let's all be thankful that the lunatics running the RFU have extended Slap Head's contract and he's now supposed to be in the front running to take over from Eddie.

            Scotty Stevenson reckons that Tony Brown would be part of an Ian Foster coaching team.

              According to a sauce who knew Gatland at Wasps, Gatland is highly likely to be the Chiefs coach next year.

              The Gatland/Chiefs story was here over three months ago. Sauce was spot on. I will buy my sauce a beer.

                          We may find out whether Mark Ella was correct and Mickey Mouse could coach the ABs to victory (not allowed to use muppet references anymore, so Mickey will do).

                          They are probably great guys but the record with super teams isn't.

                            @Snowy big difference between being a successful assistant and being the main man. I'm worried but lifting Bill in Japan should see me sufficiently anesthetized for a time

                                      Have you forgotten how Henry was perceived outside of Auckland (i.e., arrogant)? Hansen hated the media and had zero personality when he took over in 2011.

                                        @Snowy big difference between being a successful assistant and being the main man. I'm worried but lifting Bill in Japan should see me sufficiently anesthetized for a time

                                        I just don't have that feeling that this is going to happen

                                        Hate to agree, but im not very confident either ,

                                        Seems like we play poorly, just too often in recent times ,

                                        You only need one poor game in a WC and its see ya later

                                          probably totally irrelevant for this thread but has Richie McCaw ever mentioned that a coaching career may beckon somewhere in his plans?
