I can't believe people have the energy to keep this up every day. Pace yourself. You'll need that energy once ~~Schmit~~ Hammett is announced as coach.

In all seriousness though I'd be really happy if Schmidt got the role, he's my preferred candidate.

Yes he did a great job with Ireland and left there a winner. He also a very charismatic fellow.

PS I was sure you were trolling. But now I'm not sure. In any event, I would have no issue if they ditched Foster for him just for 2023.

Edit: I have gone from disliking Foster, through despising him, to outright hating what he has done. I may no longer be entirely objective. I no longer care.

I go along with Mariner, you obviously need help, to hate someone you don't know and then to boast publicly about it screams of either needing help, or a 5yo kid has your log in details.

I didn't actually say I hate Foster. I said I hate what he has done (to the ABs).

He seems an amiable man, as a person.

Edit, probably should have also made it clear dislike and despise what he has done.

Schmidt was also my preferred candidate in 2019, but 4 years have passed since then and after the debacle of 2022 if NZR have any integrity they should reward Razor's loyalty.

He was mucked around last year, he was given assurances of the job, he would've gone overseas already if those assurances weren't genuine.

He's clearly been told something - as he's stuck around despite what happened last year, so if NZR value integrity they will appoint him.

If Schmidt wants to stay on with him, even better

I think NZR have already given Razor "assurances" that the job will be his post-2023, hence his media comments, however they are going through the current process in order to appear professional and to give NZ public the impression that they're doing their 'due diligence' this time and covering 'all-bases' this time round after how shambolic the process was in 2019.

The Problem for Razor with that is NZR seem to have been pretty free with implying,hinting,Whichever you prefer,IF the rumours are true about previous situations.
I would not be holding my breath until the contact is signed sealed and delivered.

people complained thats what happened last time, so shouldnt be happy if its happening again

Old Samurai Jack

A Razor, Schmidt combo would cover all bases, wouldn't it?

Crucial

Schmidt obviously has some good qualities as a coach but he is also a coach with two 'failures' at RWCs.

Bones

Wait, so now both Schmidt and Razor have already been given the job?

This Love Island Finale is going to be epic

Do they put them both up as candidates and do we the viewers get to vote one of them off ?

NZ of all nations should understand how hard it is to win RWCs. After all it took us 24 years between cup wins #1 and #2
