    Sometimes in the one match. His kicking was pretty good against Ireland in the QF from memory.

        Whats also of interest to me is if the support staff will be kept on/want to stay on. Physio/S and C/Dietician/manager etc. A lot have been with the team since GH early days.

          @Magpie_in_aus the link I posted above indicated the new guy comes in with his full team, but you'd think some of them like Gill, Enoka would simply stay with whoever takes over?

                    If he has the right people around hiim, then it could well work....plus no amount of ranting or angst will change whatever decision the fish heads in Wellington make!

                              this is because none of you fuckers had to suffer the Fozzie years at the Chiefs.

                              Shit at set piece. No real structure, especially on defense, not great at the breakdown, but capable of some breathlessly exciting attacking play (which wouldn't come out until there was no chance of us playing finals).

                                    @antipodean Yeah, if Hinton does know more he isn't reporting it. All based on second-hand information but it will get people speculating.

                                      I hope we break the RWC cycle, and (if it is fozzie, cos he's had so long as assist) to give a two year term. Not like he's brand new coming in blind so he doesn't need 3 or 4 years to porve he's got it.

                                        One New Zealand Rugby board member in the loop is said to have been very excited by the level of support Foster has assembled, while another source indicated it was an "impressive" group.

                                        The sauce I got is that John Mitchell will be joining him with Halligan as kicking coach.

                                        You're a good poster normally, but this type of nasty trolling is beyond the pale.

                                          I'd be pleased if Cotter applied. Anyone heard any indications of his willingness?
