Only took him three minutes of the interview to get around to talking about cheese n' ham toasties and ice cream......
To be fair, Fozzy looks like he's lost a few kilos in Japan.
Well he is discussing being with Fat Guts Hansen in Japan. I bet a few bakeries got a visit.
I'm also shocked at them all talking up Hamilton.
But yes, a very likable fellow on the whole.

Listened to most of that. He seemed a decent, sensible and likeable guy with good relations with his players and the other coaches.
He's make a good neighbour. He's laugh at your jokes and offer to mow your lawn or baby sit your kids from time to time.
What I didn't get though was any sense that he was a details men or familiar with much sports science. He seemed out of his depth as AB coach to be blunt.

More too the point the players should have stayed out of the CEO hotel room. Or the CEO should've told then to get back in their box.
A CEO without bollocks.
A head coach without bollocks.
A squad without bollocks.
Thats what most of the tenure was like.

Hamilton the place not the superstar ex-All Black?
I imagine the relatively level terrain suits people with a build no longer suited to strenuous activity.

That was the knock. That Shag had lost it, and we picked a guy who would maintain his course. Razor was meant to be the agent of change. We will see how he goes this year, but last year was disappointingly more of the same

No coincidence that Steve Hansen called Christchurch home

Very touching how Ardie reached out when he was at his lowest point. The players really had his back, Gilbert Enokas statement too was an incredible endorsement.
