From a Springbok supporter: All these coaching debates will be forgotten when the ABs are in the RWC final! Their amazingly talented players will get them there. I just hope "my" team will meet them on that day.
You mean improve his 30% record against the top 5 teams - the ones that will win the WC. its a professional sport and his record is terrible, we have better. It has nothing to do with hate.
As a South African, I believe the AB team are still the GOATs💪💪. You will be in the final mates, Believe it and support your coach. As someone else mentioned, hope we meet you there.😁😎👊
yeah I hope the All Blacks do us proud, and Foster gets respect. Some in Canterbury seem to think the All Blacks revolve around them. Sad he won't reapply for the job and things will end on a sower note, the NZRB breaking with protocol created this mess. They need to assess their own performance, as well.
Raises an interesting question about how long a coach can last when they start loosing or the public doesn't like the way they are playing. The bottom line is that international rugby is in the entertainment business and fans pay a lot of money to be entertained. Eddie Joness' team started loosing, playing boring / negative rugby and then there was EJs' personality which simply did not wash with the English. If you loose the fans you loose your job, its very simple.
No for us Kiwis if you aren’t performing to our standards you got to go.. kiwis don’t like losing and the Fonzie era has been the worse in our history never have we dropped to 5th place in our history never have we lost that many games in one year in saying that we still managed to win the Rugby championship and retain the bledisloe cup and climbed back to 3rd place in the same year but 2022 was a terrible year for fozzie to make a turnaround with the fans he will have to win the World Cup or us kiwis want him gone.. we have better coaches to choose from here
@@taraishot100 Well we got burned, everyone who could cried foul, but after thrashing Argentina 53-3, we didn't lose another, just a disappointing draw against England, blowing a big 1st half lead. Which pissed me off. Meanwhile, overnight France have served notice and blown England out here, they are looking unbeatable. The All Blacks on that performance will be underdogs by everybody else's standards, but ours. But we better leave, being cocky at home, do the mahi and get our hands dirty cause they won't be easy' come RWC time. And another lost for the Crusaders, what does that mean?
@@taraishot100 Thats why I still say last year wasn't that bad apart from the initial shock of losing 4 straight, people remember that more than coming back from 5th to 3rd nothing changed from the 2019 RWC we just ain't number1, since when has being ranked number 1, helped us win a RWC anyway?...never, sorry 2015
It’s interesting to see what’s happening SH rugby. I’ve been saying for years that NH rugby has been on the rise big time. France are going to have generational golden eras on the way with their setup. Ireland have a conveyer belt of talent and a domestic system producing talent for years to come. England are always going to be in the mix. Scotland are starting to take it more seriously and for all intents and purposes Italy are playing a brand of rugby more suited to their culture - that is one to watch albeit for some curious rugby minds to enjoy (they beat Australia last summer). Very interesting times ahead!
Italy only beat Australia because Dave Rennie underestimated how good Italy could be and benched half the team. European rugby is going to overtake SH rugby at some point in the future. All the business and economic signs point to it and the on field performances are beginning to reflect it. Rugby is growing all over the world though with the exception of Australia and England.
the economics over here in NH have gotten a bit out of hand, some of the unions have responded quickly on player welfare and club v country, others less so. But it is fair to say there’s fresh air between France/Ireland and the rest in Europe now. Club rugby is struggling big time.
You would have thought the NH would have finally caught up by now - They've always had more money yet here we are heading into the 2023 RWC and only one NH team has won it
Love it how the Northern Hemisphere seem think they are so dominant, Out of all the games last year the draw against England was most disappointing. But they kicked the ball out, and gave us no chance of winning the game. Ireland deserved their 1st ever test series on New Zealand soil and join The 1971 Irish British lions, 1937 South Africa, 1994 Australia, & France as having won a Test series in New Zealand, they are in good company and deserve number 1 ranking atm. But the clouds are gathering, a storm is brewing and a Black cloud coming, Beware of Argentina, Japan as teams not to take likely, and on their day Australia can beat anyone. Could this year finally see France crack the code on home soil? Having been bride maid a couple of times. So glad we have Rugby being played in New Zealand with Super Rugby Pacific into our 3rd week, round 3 and no disruptions or lockdowns. We won't be underdone this year.
Ireland look the most stable team in terms of coaches and players all on board together. Andy Farrell is doing a great job and I can't see anything but a RWC final berth for Ireland come September.
I think its Irelands WC to lose, based on recent form, if they can overcome the pressure as favourites they'll take it imo...the ABs fell over many times in WCs when going in as favourites but finally got over the line in 2011
@@juicybombay3534 First game RWC opener, looking forward to that game we have knocked each other out a few times in the past. France has beaten the All Blacks more times than any other Northern Hemisphere Team. That will be a big game. Good luck.
Love the confidence of NZ. it’s like they don’t care ever about anything but winning the World Cup. They talk like not winning the WC is just no option at all
@@locominyana8916 yeah if we don't have our way and win, we do. We are our own worse critic's.We are either extremely proud, or like a hang over, extremely critical. There is no middle ground in New Zealand. We go into National morning for a week or two

@@locominyana8916 Yep your right our reality around us don't change because we win or lose. but being constantly reminded by people who won't let you forget they beat us in a particular semi-final way back in 2019 then I won't hesitate and give them a history lesson they may beat us once in a blue moon but they don't have bragging Rights over us, and I won't give them the pleasure. And our record speaks for itself. They just need reminding of the fact. Now I can walk away, but that not me, because I want them to know. so there is no misunderstanding. Because we should be proud that the All Black are the most successful sporting team in the history of sport. Because I am. The Southern Hemisphere dominate the RWC with England 1 and I've already stated "IF" the Northern Hemisphere ever wins another one that I hope it's France or Ireland and I won't take that statement back. My Dream Final Springbok, All Blacks, may as well start a new chapter.
I agree, time to change with the times. Pat Lamb, would be an amazing coach. Not sure if NZ old boys are ready to make this decision to really shake it up.
I think in hindsight all the opinions on this clip have proven to be wrong. A few weeks have passed and we as a public are not talking about who the next coach is going to be. We're watching the rugby. If we waited till after the World Cup, the speculation would've continued. The pundits are thinking it's unfair on Foster, but the reality is 1. In any other country he wouldn't have survived this far. Every other sport/country/company would sack the man in charge but we sack the workers 2. Even if he does win the World Cup he shouldn't be appointed again, just like Steve Hanson should never have stayed on after winning in 2015. Hanson was going to stay on for 2 years, things got stale but he extended till the next World Cup. We all know how it all turned out and the team is still finding it's feet four years on after sacking 2 underlings.
And he'd be right, they have completed that step and have only the World Cup to focus on this year, Where's the problem??? Exactly what problem are you seeing here.
Im amazed they question Robertson still. He plays a very expansive fast brand of Rugby . Must be given a chance now else will end up at England or another European country.
Robertson is a winner and we know what winners do, they tend to win. NZ Rugby have shown in recent years they are not winners. They appointed an incompetent coach, then backed him up instead of sacking him when he proved he is not a winner. Don’t be surprised if they stuff this up and lose Robertson.
@@cspace1234nz you forget the All Black' s were lacking match fitness and game time drew in part to Covid disruptions to our domestic game. The results was how the season panned out initially losing 4 in a row 2 against Ireland, 1 to Argentine & 1 against South Africa then rallying and winning the Championship beating japan, Wales, Scotland & drawing with England. We were at our lowest 5th ranked and ended up in 3rd spot, which could had been 2nd spot had they beaten England. I don't see it as the end of the world This year Super Rugby Pacific has ranked up into it's 3rd week with a full season ahead which will bring the All Blacks and new Talent out and on display. There shouldn't be a problem this year like last. So if Foster is allowed to finish his time as Head All Black coach, Drop the unnecessary Talk about Scott Robinson or whoever takes over. they won't takeover till next year.
@@richardmatatahi4563 ….if indeed the All Blacks we’re lacking in match fitness and game time due to Covid then so were opposing teams. Poor excuse. We also know rankings are a poor indicator. The All Blacks will not win the RWC under Foster. The best they can hope for is that they won’t be humiliated in some way
@@cspace1234nz I recall UK & Europe were already out of lockdown well before us, because they had self testing. We were still coming out of lockdown, border closures during 2021,22.and Traffic light restrictions ended 12th Sept, 2022. I wasn't offering an excuse. but a reason, or explanation. France won six nations 2022, defeating England, and achieving the Grand slam. They all got a head start, on us, and France are a good side, and in our pool at the World Cup. We lacked game time, and I stand by that view. But that was last year this year, we're into our 3rd week of Super Rugby Pacific everyone's out there, new talent on display and full season ahead. I won't share your deflated optimism or what you think of the All Blacks, what a weak attitude, you have, stand up, kia kaha, and "GO THE BLOODY ALL BLACKS" and Waikato Chief's

I wonder if NZR have considered Townsend at all? Out of contract after the World Cup and look what’s he has done over the years with that Scotland team… would be a dark horse for sure I reckon just a thought 🤷🏻♂️
Yes excellent man management with Russel and Hogg....2 very self focused individuals....disciplined them with a purpose by leaving them out for stints and elevating others....new captain in Ritchie and the 2 of them seem to have bought into the team first ethic....more so Russell this far

After 50 years of never missing an All Blacks test I haven’t watched a single game since the incompetent NZ Rugby appointed the equally incompetent coach.

NZ have won their last world cup. They've poached the islands for years to get their success. Those brilliant island boys now know that they can get the financial rewards for their hard work elsewhere. Being an All Black is no longer the be-all-and end-all it used to be.
