    No doubt he's racked up plenty of losses, but I don't tend to think he's underachieved as badly as many others think.

    Cardiff - I had temporarily forgotten. He wasn't there long - but, he won quite a few matches with a team that was not particularly good to start with. He may not have made them any better, but I don't think he made them any worse.

      @Chris-B.

      Hammett has plenty of experience at losing/underachieving, or have you forgotten Cardiff as well? I think he's one of those who is better as an assistant than a head coach. If I was a Highlanders supporter I wouldn't be happy if Hammett was named as Brown's replacement.

      Not my problem though...

        He must interview well because no one is hiring based on results...

              I never thought I'd see anyone being so Wingeresque about the Hammetuer.

              The blues could finally get a decent halves combo after one season of this clowns management .

                He must interview like Jesus . He's one of those coaches that seems to get employed no matter what happens where they were last and he slots in nicely with a list that includes John Mitchell , Jake White and Scott Johnson .

                  You clearly don't remember Paj and Chris B on the old thread.

                  Maybe he's learnt his lessons and will actually be a decent coach this time round. Maybe.

                      I've tried to repress most memories of that era.
                      I remember reading one time he was apparently the one who came with the plan of how to beat the Brumbies in the 2000 s12 final, maybe he's a better tactician or assistant coach like other have suggested?

                                Hasn't Aaron Mauger teamed up with him as well?

                                Another with a less than exemplary track record.

                                  I remember Paj saw him speak and after that he appeared hypnotised by his coaching prowess.

                                    Hammetteur is to Super rugby what Lane Kiffin is to the NFL. How the fark does he keep getting these gigs?

                                      Hammett might be head coach , but I suspect it's just as likely to be McLeod or even Preston. Highlanders management seem to be fairly switched on. Hammett had a good go as a head coach and just wasn't up to it - though I am prepared to believe he's a good tactical coach.
