All Black Coach - Ian Foster
-
@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?

Or already with Oz? But yes, as per Henry, your coaching team is very important.

how underwhelming.
JJ had 10 years coaching Super rugby and won once.
Foster is a proven failure
Robertson has never even got a team to beat the Crusaders.

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.

Like Hansen then?
5 years NPC with 2 wins despite having the strength of Canterbury
2 years as an assistant with the Saders
33% win record as a head coach with Wales
How did he get into the ABs set up in the first place?
87% success with ABs as head coach despite no success at some high level of coaching.
Just trying to add some clarity around things.

I reckon JJ has the inside running at the moment for a couple of reasons.
Despite what I typed above he has shown an ability at international level and he has at least one key desirable coaching partner.
Hansen and continuity won out after Henry because there was value that could be seen in completing the transition of culture which was getting results. The alternatives were unproven at that time.
Is continuity required now? I would question what Foster is going to bring that differs from what has been shown within the Shag era. Do we need to continue something that hasn't finished yet? I don't think so.
I think that Robertson is going to be seen as young enough to go and get some international experience under his belt. He has already declared that he won't be an assistant so he either stays at the Saders proving nothing or takes up an overseas job. It doesn't have to be at a top tier country. If he can create good wins with a second tier (like JJ) he will be ready to come back.
I reckon either Scotland or Italy would be great for his future development.

Robertson extended his contract with the Crusaders and NZR until 2021; that was after he had expressed interest in the ABs head coach role. So if he doesn't get the top gig, he'll stay at least until after the 2021 SR season.

Only 50% record at RWCs as head coach ...

I'm backing Dave Rennie now.
Nothing against JJ or Razor, but it'll be bloody funny if he-who-used-to-be-Sumo gets this one spectacularly wrong.

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?

The last two head coaches did overseas stints with Wales, then came back to the ABs. I think Henry squeezed in a season with the Blues as a support coach, and they won the thing.
International rugby is not Super. You have a larger player pool and less time with the players, no warm-ups, and the weaknesses in the opposition are less.
Given Robertson doesn't want to be an assistant, I'd be surprised if he got there this time. Could be the Deans candidate this time around

True, but with the Highlanders.
Not a feat anyone else has come close to (except perhaps the Queensland Reds win under Ewen McKenzie -- from rabble to winners back to rabble).
Even Rennie had more to work with when he came in.

What does it matter, ABs have the finest cattle, anyone could coach them
