    @Kirwan

    I'm aware of the Crusaders ability to adopt many styles of play

    But learning is a constant act Being exposed to Canterbury alone is only going to allow him to learn so much

    He would benefit from some time overseas coaching to challenge himself and broaden his horizons

    Razor has plenty of time He needs to wait in line

    Plenty of worthy coaches for ABs: Cotter Rennie Gatland Schmidt etc

    Unless Foster is an utter incompetent goose There wont be any vacancies for at least 4 years

    Not being a close follower of the Chiefs I am not as closely aligned passing an opinion on this as the Chiefs supporters we have on this site who will be able to offer their opinions as to confirming one way or the other their views on your statement re his overall competency. Being a selector coach involves much more than simply coaching a bunch of players.

      If only we knew who was available. Two of those probably not, so not that many worthy options.

        Oh, and his years at the Chiefs...ouch. Honk honk.

        Not to say he hasn't learnt, but his history doesn't endear him to most AB fans I suspect.

          A man walks into a bar and an Argentinian fan calls for Foster or Gatland to be AB coach. Good joke

              At least if I have the nerve to ever wank on about Scottish Rugby I have a heap of heritage to back me up

                So if the Lions coach is ruled out, and the bloke who said he wants a break for family reasons (Schmidt). Vern hasn't covered himself in glory (although that could be a cattle issue) and apparently Rennie is off to coach the Wallabies.

                Options look thin.

                    Well Razor looks like he intends to give it a shot

                    "That process is the first week of December and I've got to prepare to put myself forward," he said at Monday's victory parade through Christchurch.

                    "I've done what I can to and hopefully have a great interview, all going well. If they want someone, they know who they're getting with me...

                    Asked to assess his chances, Robertson was thoughtful.

                    "Ask me closer to the time," he said. "I'm a pretty positive and optimistic person, and if you have a crack, you'd like to think you've got a chance."

                        I don’t really think the sample size is big enough to say whether or not a successful ABs must have offshore coaching experience to be successful. The same guys have been running the ABs for 15 years.
                        The game has changed so much in that time.

                        If anything the evidence points to the opposite scenario where a successful international coach is better off if they have NZ coaching experience.

                        It has to be Razor for me. Foster came in after the dynasty was built. Razor has well and truely proven himself. Not giving it to him would effectively be telling him to fuck off overseas for a decade.

                                  Fat people deserve to be joked about

                                  Don't Google police this place now? I'm not fat shaming, no way.

                                  Sorry, people who ‘might have issues with their weight’....I think that’s the PC term for it.

                                      The government term is obese, which has a real nice ring to it, especially morbidly obese

                                        Can't say that anymore. I listen to ZB. I know these things. Doctors are constantly upsetting patients with the truth these days.
