All Black Coach - Ian Foster
-
I voted for Gatland but would be happy with Joseph or Rennie. But the elephant in the room for me is the player pool. I think that is the issue for NZ rugby. For example, who are the next three no 8's now KR is gone?

Gatland? No thanks. Haven’t you seen him singing the Welsh anthem. That’s un-New Zealand

Dear Sirs and Madams,
Don't even think about making Ian Foster the next All Blacks coach.
Yours faithfully,

PS - while you are at it Whereabouts is that ridiculous 1996 Tri Nations trophy kept? It deserves to be seen in public again.

Us. All of us here, the rest of them are useless pricks that lose all of the time.
Oh, and Joseph for head coach. He gets to pick assistants.

We should think of constructive things to say...

@sparky Jesus Christ is this real?
Yep, the makers of the trophy mixed up inches with cms and produced a super-sized trophy.
It's last known whereabouts were in the NZ Rugby Museum in Palmerston North:

Who ever it is needs to get Robertson out of the Crusaders and Blackadder back in. At least Blackadder was able to manage his All Blacks to cruise through Super rugby without giving two Fu&&$. Robertson has them giving everything and it's impacting on the ABs

Joseph for me. Next Robertson. Next Rennie.
And Tony Brown in the mix.
When you consider the highlanders then the brave blossoms, Joseph looks a great coach.

Joseph agree. But he needs Brown as an assistant. They are a great combination. Maybe Plumtree as well but definitely not as head coach. We would end up with a 1.90m lock and lots of plodders in the team.
-
Joseph for me with Brown and maybe Garland too.
Brown for the Wayne Smith style backline, Garland for the oppressive defence and Joseph can coach journeymen in Highlander and Japan teams to play above themselves. What would he do with more talented players?
Time for a nastier AB team.

Totally agree with this point. Time to be polite but not nice again.
I'd love to see Sean Fitzpatrick involved as a selector or in management of the ABs setup, but he is too involved with UK TV and Lareaus.
-
I'd go with Robertson as head coach with experienced assistants (Brown for the backs and Mitchell for the defence and the forwards).
-
I voted for Joseph.
Would prefer Rennie, but did not vote for him because Australian media are insistent that Rennie is the next Australian coach, with back room staff already informed of it.
I would prefer a total reset with Foster and McLeod not involved.
