    I hope they don't put much weight on the formal interviews - I want someone who is a good coach, not someone who is good at interviews.

    That's how you end up with a guy like this

    Careful - if Brett Impey forgets his spectacles he won't read the fine print and will count that as one vote for Hammer!

          At least he's self aware enough to recognise it.

                Don't think John Mitchell has been approached. The job ad specifically says the NZRU are looking for the best and not a journeyman.

                Cueball only ever coached what he called "Development Teams" IIRC...

                  Robertson mentioned he coached club sides.
                  What was his record like at that level?

                    Think he won Chch comp with a previously unfancied team (Sumner)

                      It's got to be Jamie Joseph. Just imagine the fast way Japan play, yet with more power. And equal passion. It matches the way the All Blacks should play, like an unstoppable swarm through the forwards, combined with big fast wings and FB, and with great all round backline skills that break open defences like a hot knife through butter.
                      -kick catching, kicking for territory should be practiced to a higher level.

                      Couldn't Rennie be involved as well, forwards coach, as well as talent spotter throughout the provinces?

                        I am wary of Robertson, becuse he does lack experience, and now is missing Tony Brown - I think that has hurt him cos he is now looking for someone to go with - not ideal. I really like the idea of him coming in as assistant with a view to taking over in 4 years, JJ with Tony B and Robertson I'd love + specialist coaches

                          @Machpants Except Robertson has said he isn't interested in being an assistant. He has limited his options by doing so.

                                I think that's really odd. Maybe it is just he knows he would be a PitA as assistant, a problem not a help. Otherwise it is a very well travelled path he is turning down, I reckon he'll have to do an overseas head coach first, unless he assembles a really good team

                                  When you say "well travelled path" you mean it's happened once? With Steve Hansen? Scott Robertson has has success at every level as a coach, at club, U20's, provincial and Super Rugby levels. Why would he or should he play second fiddle to an absolute pretender like Ian Foster who has never had any success as a Head Coach?

                                    @Cantab79 well travelled path, as in doing a high level assistant coach before head coach. Around the rugby world, not just NZ.

                                      The more I read the more it is obvious. Foster surely cannot get the job. Shouldn't you need to have success at some high level of coaching? How did he get into the All Blacks set up in the first place? If he gets it, it just seems to be real cronyism.

                                          @KiwiMurph guess it all depends on the team they have around them.

                                          We know Brown is part of JJs team, but who is Razor and Fozzie lining up to work with them?

                                          Rennie not thrown his hat in or he lining up to work with one of them?
