    ABs job is a bit different, but it comes with a lot of pressure.

    That's one of the reasons I think Joseph is happy to stay with Japan. Less expectations and therefore pressure.

    Boy the fishing grounds really have been ravaged around here in recent past if a massive piece of bait like the ex Blues coach doesn't even get a nibble.

    Yes! That's it and I bet you see that headline on Stuff or NZHerald as they are usually unable to think for themselves

    All pointing to a Scott Robertson appointment is my bet.

    It's 2007 all over again! The incumbent who we're not quite sure about versus the guy whose dominating super rugby.

    @Chris-B

    And now Dave Rennie is dead to me.

    I don’t see how any kiwi can coach Oz against the All Blacks - I’ll bet that the number 1 KPI is getting and holding the Bled, which means it’s the only job in the world where you are evaluated primarily on beating the one team you supposedly support and want to coach one day.

    I can’t see how it ever leads to an AB coaching gig either, so it’s just joining the international ranks.

    I’m going to be so fucked off if this is true**

    ** I’m happy to admit my hypocrisy in not really having another team (although probably England and SA - although I doubt SA would appoint a kiwi as head coach) that I would be so worked up about.

    I wonder if NZR, or one of the remaining candidates are going to try to twist Joe Schmidt's arm.

    I wonder if the real play here is lining up Gatland? Foster gets a two year contract but is really just an interim until Gatland comes in to install his rush defence.

    Wasn't there a rumour that Schmidt could be part of Foster's "dream team"?

    Schmidt might prefer to take a step back and be an assistant coach.

    @Bovidae

    One hopes that there are some big players in support of either candidate because what we are seeing right now is people choosing security ahead of ambition.

    If the remainers aren’t that much chop, it seems that the NZ rugby appointment process takes too long and should have been moved through more quickly.

    @Cyclops The same plan could be with Robertson stepping in after two years.

    @gt12 I wonder if both Rennie and Joseph even registered any interest in applying?

    Would be a pretty stupendous error to say the announcement is being made today and to have the whole thing wrong.

    I can't see how given Foster's role would be more akin to Hansen; management and general direction. That would be asking Schmidt to be a specialist coach which would require a considerable time commitment.

    Yep I think we are heading for a fresh start
    Change of CEO next change of Coach
    With a different approach no baggage from the WC.
