@No-Quarter said in Foster must go:
Will we lose to SA? I mean they just lost to Wales at home so it sounds like they aren't exactly hot shit this year, not that I've watched. And if we win that's more than enough for NZR to claim we are "building towards the RWC", which is so offensive as an AB fan when we are giving up 100+ year records.
Of course we will, it was a total b team that lost by a point
@BartMan said in Foster must go:
@MN5 that was the only good thing to.cpmw.out of the test.
The fact this result brings @BartMan out if hibernation says it all.
Who next, @Red-Beard ? Any others ?

Foster would give a bollock for a test win right now
@Jailbreak7
According to some posters, he should be happy to be Fosters assistant and if he doesn't accept being an assistant then he doesn't deserve the top spot.

He seems happily ensconced on Twitter these days.
Great to see @BartMan back - now he just needs to stay logged in

@Victor-Meldrew Do you think he wants to be a head coach? He'd be my pick if he does.
I haven't a clue. But who wouldn't want to coach the All Blacks and not just be a mentor? Persuade him to take over until RWC2023 for starters
He'd be a safe pair of hands and then be able hand over to Rennie, Jesus, Joseph or another assistant.
Like the thought of Jesus being an assistant
Jesus?
I pray we lose to SA and the Bled. Because the small sliver of hope is that it's enough to dump foster and go into the RWC with some optimism (justified or not).

Jesus Crobinson. He's a saviour according to some.

Thought so. I wouldn't want to be Fozz's assistant either. What does he have to gain, how much of himself can he tangibly give to the team without being the HC? Fozz is beyond redemption and Scott is the winningest coach in Super Rugby. I'm no Razor fanboy. But he needs to be given full control

@Tim Schmidt and MacDonald
MacDonald was awesome outcoaching Razor in the SR final. Oh wait....
@PecoTrain yes, maybe one nepotism appointment, after WINNING a RWC is acceptable. But after losing the semi,.it should have been a new broom sweeping clean. It wasn't, and we're now here, lowest point in AB rugby ever.

Good the drums are beating to replace Foster.
@No-Quarter said in Foster must go:
@Duluth said in Foster must go:
The realistic option is Schmidt
He starts his AB contract right now. So no other logistics needed.
Does he want a head coach role though?
My guess is he'd accept an interim role

Those drums need to beat a fuck load harder

So it's been brought up on the roar, there's a presser tomorrow 9 am, is that standard? I think it is but please tell me it's not
This will be the NZRU being super organised and naming the squad to tour SA Got to get those tickets booked early to get the best deal.
NZ rugby....leading the way in getting value for money 
I’m going to bet that one (Moaar) or maybe two (Moaar, Macleod) assistants get the ass, but that Fozzie stays on.
Will they even be that brave?

But Foster chose them. And he hasn't sought to replace them. So again, his decision making is called into question.
If the NZRU force him to change his assistants, what is to say the replacements fare any better if the man at the top is the handbrake?

Didn't the Waikato/Chiefs fans used to say that Foster had his favourites and no matter how useless they played, they were nigh on undroppable?
He is loyal, at worst. With players and staff.
Deja vu.

Firstly, I’m not defending Foster - he should go - but I’m also not convinced that NZ rugby will do the right thing. Robinson has run the place into the ground so I cant see them admitting they got the Foster appointment wrong. However, I wonder whether they think that a few assistant heads might keep the public happy.

It isn't the players. These are the best available to NZ.
It isn't COVID.
It isn't a lack of time together.
For whatever reason, the performances aren't improving. If Foster survives, the NZRU should be transparent and say why. Back their man and explain it. The All Blacks belong to NZ and the NZ public. Robinson et al need to remember that. Without the public and its support, there is no All Blacks.

In the NFL once a coach has his assistants removed against his will, it is the beginning the end. The players are not stupid. They know a lame duck coach when they see one

Thats a big fat No to just the assistants. They are all culpable as far as Im concerned. NZ rugby is rot\ten to the core and this needs - no - demands a complete clearout.
