Hansen is an attack / game strategy guy now, correct? Will he go back to defence or stay there?
So, we need a defence coach and maybe a specific backs / attack coach?
I'd like a skills coach similar to Mic the kick again.

Hansen I think will stay with attack/Game strategy.
Razor may take over the defence he started out with Canterbury as a defence coach that was his specialty.
Looks to me like a backs coach and depending on Razor a defence coach.

That would give Leon the best chance, Shirley?
He could gut the Saders and bring Ellison for defense as well I guess. Any chance he could bring in a northern hemisphere person? Any out of box picks like a Jono Gibbes (he’s out of a job right now if I recall)?

Yeah I think it would be a possibility,Razor will think outside the box we may see a NH person attached to the group.
I would throw out the names of Vern Cotter,Ronan O’Gara,Andy Goodman as all a chance -
If he wants to think outside the box for a defence coach look to a former RL player. Someone like Ruben Wiki.

RL defence coaches are so far in the box that that is the opposite of innovation

Wonder with that gossip about Ryan snubbing Razor once he got the AB gig and Razor mentioning the word 'loyalty' in his coaching team that he might bypass Jason Ryan.
Seems unlikely, but wondering if it is a possibility.
Any sauces from the Canterbury guys here?

I doubt Ryan would be so short-sighted but if true that would be a shame, the forwards noticeably improved when he joined the AB coaches.

Not sure about were that went,Rumour says they are all good now.
But not 100% on that. -

What about Chris Boyd? His appointment with the Highlanders was for one year only.
and it was only a mentor role, always seemed like just finding him something to do until a more permanent role came up

Might have been waiting to see how things shake out with the new AB coaching gig, so he could step in to a Super head role. Looks like at least two head coach positions will be available (assuming Razor takes one of Panadol or Holland).
I'd prefer not to lose him now that he is finally selecting some players in the right place (e.g., Dmac 10, Stevenson 15) but McMillan could be a smokey to be involved, in which case it could be potentially three jobs.

@gt12 yeah, good way to re familiarise himself with the lay of the land

@Kiwiwomble One thing is for sure there is going to be a real vacum left in the Super Franchises with coaches leaving for the All Black spot. With the possible signing of Brad Shields, it would be good to have a slight reversal of our player exodus.

McMillan might be better off sticking with the Chiefs as a head coach.

A good problem to have, finally having super rugby coach's step up to the AB level instead of just heading overseas.
The "must have international experience" line always bugged me as it basically guaranteed that our best and brightest rugby coaching talent "had to" go overseas and we'd just hope they'd come back at some stage.
Exporting all your best talent out to the opposition doesn't seem like the smartest development pathway for an organization to take...

I just clicked that razors four years doesn't have a mid way check, it's a four year contract. That's the first in a while.

Well that shows supreme confidence from the board - though I don't know if I should feel reassured or if I should burst out laughing.
