New Coaches?

Do you think we'll see Henry and co replaced?
I don't really know if I want to see him go, sure we lost, but he has been good for us.
Certainly some big shoes to fill...

The things he would learn from the mistakes hes made in this campaign would be priceless. He pretty much did everything right over the last 4 years, his plan only really needed slight tweaking here and there and it would have been perfect.

I wouldnt be against keeping him.

Henry is the man. That won't slow them down, however - the NZ people are baying for blood and henry's will be the first (it won't satiate them).

Super 14 coaches and provincial coaches will be lining up to say "we told you so". The ABs lacked game time and we all know it, but we trusted that Henry knew what he was doing. We watched players like Keith Robinson and Greg Somerville and Conrad Smith pull on black jerseys after playing scant minutes of rugby all year, but we trusted that Henry knew what he was doing. We watched the ABs splashing around in swimming pools in Marseille rather than training, and we trusted that Henry knew what he was doing.

My guess: Henry, Smith, Hansen will all get the chop. Deans will get the top job, and possibly re-hire Smith.

Fark, time for someones medication

I'm on the fence with this one he's done a pretty good job so far, could go either way.

I thought our pack was overrated, but our coach did well.

If he had to go, I'd take Robbie Deans.

I don't think he should go. He might retire (He is 61...), but I don't think he should get the chop.

I think he should be given the option of staying. I am happy with how he coached. The whole "swimming" instead of training would have been a photo oportunity, which if they didn't do that sort of thing, he would be labelled the same as Mitchell.

I don't rate Deans higher than Henry, and I can't think of any other coaches that should be there.

He will quit.

Yeah I think so too.

And you swim after matches or contact training sessions, it's a recovery method.

Henry was going to retire at the end of the world cup whether we won or lost.

I think robbie deans should get the job

Maybe with Gatland to help him with the forwards.
