One assumes this is what Tew referred to earlier in the week where the "self-selecting" applicants have been kept in the loop about proceedings. Hardly him being offered the job as the headline suggests.
Good to see him in the mix he has the best CV.

@Bovidae said in [Poll] Next All Black Coach:
One New Zealand Rugby board member in the loop is said to have been very excited by the level of support Foster has assembled, while another source indicated it was an "impressive" group.
The sauce I got is that John Mitchell will be joining him with Halligan as kicking coach.
You're a good poster normally, but this type of nasty trolling is beyond the pale.

I'm too transparent and I can't fool you guys.....

I've heard it's Mick Jagger:
"Yeah, well I was going to spend 2020 recording a new album and going on the road with the Rolling Stones, but then Foz phoned me up and told me he wants the lineout fixed. So here I am"

NZ Herald thinks it is Joe Schmidt. Not aware of him being a Rock Star:

Washed up rockstar if he is. His 2016-17 albums were awesome, but 2018-19 albums were just more of the same and they got panned in the 6N and RWC charts, as well as by the critics.

@Machpants well you never know, if he leaves the band and starts in with another he may have more successes!

im guessing that might go close to getting him over the line if true ,
But depending on what teams the rest put together of course.
Foster , Schmidt, Tony brown , might be difficult to beat

They're all backs/attack coaches aren't they? That mix doesn't seem right

Good point. We blitz team in the last 15 with two flyhalfs and mobile props. We should start the game like that!

@Duluth probably do away with props all together, and have more loosies out there.

Can anyone remember a more hotly contested time for AB's coach? We almost have too many options, a good place to be I guess.

Less options, but 2007 had much more heat in it. Pretty much everyone fell into one of the two camps and were absolutely certain that their pick was the one true path.
Whereas this year I think whoever gets the gig we'll probably mostly shrug our shoulders and go 'he seems like a good choice'. Unless it's Foster.

How many of the pro-Rennie guys are the same guys who believe Hansen was propped up by Wayne Smith.......

Don't know about propped up but Smith for McLeod was a downgrade for sure.

Hardly fair, any coach is a downgrade from Wayne Smith. I think he's done a fine job, if you look at the analysis articles pre England, we've been the top defensive team

... and they only scored 19 points against us. Defence wasn't really what killed us; part of it, but not the main thing
