imo, henry is a must. hes got a record of 42-6 or something. i mean come on, give the dog a bone. hes gotten blamed for all the wrong reasons. yes i can say, that if we had of had beaten the french, we wouldnt have won against england or south africa. they were 2 very good teams. but people said, reconditioning this and that.... rotation this that, and all the rest of it. imo if graham realised that a carter mcallister 10-12 would have been ideal (which it turned out to be) and given these guys more time togeather, that would have been more successful. he knows this. however if it had have been deans, it would have been carter and maguer.
and as ripper said. hamilton, ralph and tuialili will be licking there chops at this. they clearly arnt and i really belive that it will be a heavy cantab based all blacks side if he does make it. and as mitchel (who was one of our worst coaches) with DEANS at his side had a big cantab based side, which DIDNT work. i mean, no cullen? the way he played ma'a and tana.
ive given up on the allblacks in world cups, if deans is coach, they wont even be worth following.
however if i was henry, i wouldnt have even gone for the coaching position. i would have been too shitty at the nzrfu about how hes been slagged of by them. sadly, even though there is a huge public outcry for henry to stay, i think deans has already got his new all blacks coaching jersy on.
