    If that’s true, Schmidt should ask for a 3 year appointment

      Not sure what you are expecting, unless they’ve changed team naming’s to Monday and no one told us.

      When’s the RC squad named?

      If it’s about the future of the coach, I’m certainly not expecting anything new today. In terms of media cycle today is the ‘wash up from the game’ day.

            Foster then would seem to be far better at defining contract terms than coaching the ABs.

              Why, as a fan, you may want to know when things are happening is weird. Like, don't you just cre about memes on twitter?

                for a 16 month early termination? seems legit...

                  There is basically not a single good argument for Foster staying.
                  Fuckin none.

                  There might be if neither Razor or Joe want to pick up a dirty nappy.

                  Which does make you wonder why the likes of Jamie Joseph were a bit less than keen.

                  I'd say more money than NZR were offering, or did he play in the same team as Robinson and didn't want him as a boss?

                  If NZR have to pay a guy, supposedly 3 or 4 times his annual salary for sacking him in a job that is all about performance and results and this team is achieving neither, then they need to look at the hiring process and thier contracts.

                    What is he waiting for? Sure the circumstances aren't ideal. But surely he would back himself?

                      Depends how you add it up. Maybe 18 months payout for Foster (NZRs fault) and 18 months for the new guy.
                      If Schmidt he’s already on a contract so the increase won’t be a full salary. Then there’s the assistants to pay out.

                            Maybe this is just a big ruse on Fosters part to get a big payout without having to do the work. Getting fat was all part of the plan.

                              They don’t. That will be total cost. Pay out old guys. Pay new guys
                              The bit the media miss is that they have to pay someone anyway.
                              Even if they ignore the new costs it’s what ? Three maybe four salaries for 16 months. Sounds about right

                                He has a contract. If I had a contract and it was cancelled I would expect it to be paid out unless there were clauses that said otherwise. No need to defame the guy by inference that he is holding them over the fire.

                                      If NZR have to pay a guy, supposedly 3 or 4 times his annual salary for sacking him in a job that is all about performance and results and this team is achieving neither, then they need to look at the hiring process and thier contracts.

                                      They don’t. That will be total cost. Pay out old guys. Pay new guys
                                      The bit the media miss is that they have to pay someone anyway.
                                      Even if they ignore the new costs it’s what ? Three maybe four salaries for 16 months. Sounds about right

                                      @Crucial yeah forgot about the other fellas too.

                                      That said, still points to a shitty process when they re-signed him off some ok results without putting some tight performance clauses in.

                                      I can understand Razors reluctance, he can see the issues, he knows people will demand/expect immediate results and maybe doesn't think we have the tools to make the immediate changes or his preferred team is unavailable?

                                        TV3 reckons Razor is reluctant. Schmidt is the man and the assistants are goneburger

                                        What is he waiting for? Sure the circumstances aren't ideal. But surely he would back himself?

                                        It appears not. They said that Robertson wants the full 4 years before a RWC.

                                          Get over it. It would have been extended at the end of the year any. Way to much disruption and Covid to cover his arse then.
