    Joseph for me. Next Robertson. Next Rennie.

    And Tony Brown in the mix.

    When you consider the highlanders then the brave blossoms, Joseph looks a great coach.

    Joseph agree. But he needs Brown as an assistant. They are a great combination. Maybe Plumtree as well but definitely not as head coach. We would end up with a 1.90m lock and lots of plodders in the team.

    Joseph for me with Brown and maybe Garland too.

    Brown for the Wayne Smith style backline, Garland for the oppressive defence and Joseph can coach journeymen in Highlander and Japan teams to play above themselves. What would he do with more talented players?

    Time for a nastier AB team.

    Wayne Grey on the NZ Herald site is doing a live chat. He thinks Foster is highly regarded by the NZRU and has the inside running to be the next coach.

    Totally agree with this point. Time to be polite but not nice again.

    I'd love to see Sean Fitzpatrick involved as a selector or in management of the ABs setup, but he is too involved with UK TV and Lareaus.

    I'd go with Robertson as head coach with experienced assistants (Brown for the backs and Mitchell for the defence and the forwards).

    Too unproven and we need to step away from a Crusaders bias.

    I voted for Joseph.

    Would prefer Rennie, but did not vote for him because Australian media are insistent that Rennie is the next Australian coach, with back room staff already informed of it.

    I would prefer a total reset with Foster and McLeod not involved.

    Who ever it is needs to get Robertson out of the Crusaders and Blackadder back in. At least Blackadder was able to manage his All Blacks to cruise through Super rugby without giving two Fu&&$. Robertson has them giving everything and it's impacting on the ABs

    I think that was McCaw’s influence more than Blackadder. His last 5 or so years he just cruised for the crusaders and the younger players followed suit.

    Who's this Garland fella? 😉

    All the applicants will have to inform NZR about who their assistant coaches will be so that will be just as important as who the head coach is.

    Foster may look at Colin Cooper as they coached the JABs together, and seems keen on Brown.

    Cron retiring is a good thing as we need fresh ideas coaching the scrums and forwards.

    Just no Foster because it would be a continuation of what we have had for the past two seasons and everyone except the blindest of fans can see the obvious problems.

    Fozzie: "Brownie, you up for being my assistant?", Brown: "Sorry Fozzie, Jamie and I are having a crack."
    Fozzie: "Jamie, great job with Japan, I still think I'm the better coach so do you want to be my 2IC?", Joseph: "Fuck off Fozzie!"
    Fozzie: "Coops Bra, you want to be my 2IC?". Cooper: "Sorry Fozzie, King Country need a new head coach."
    Fozzie: "Razor, great job with the Crusaders, I think I need your dance skills", Razor " Fozzie, the backs were shit at the WC, I can do better and I am a forwards coach."
    Fozzie: "Hammet, our forwards got smashed, you are the man for the job", Hammet:"When do I start"

    As good as Hansen was, it's time for a change

    Someone should turn this thread into a poll. Choices?

    Fozzie
    JJ and T Brown
    Razor
    Gatland

    Anyone else?

    Fail by moi.

    I dont know how they would work, but a JJ Brown Razor triumvirate would be interesting

    England's defence has been outstanding so far. Why not Mitchell as the next defence specialist to replace McLeod ?
