[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 865772, member: 56232"] It IS circular, you are determining someone's hypothetical ability to coach the Lions purely on how well they coached the Lions, ie your criteria for determining who should get a job is solely who has the job. Oh course it is "guess work" because it is a HYPOTHETICAL COMPARISON! How can you not understand this? Also how can you not know that Jones and Schmidt both ruled themselves out of the Lions? Seriously? You want to try to make a point and yet you clearly don't even know the basics of the selection. Let me now explain it in simple terms, Gatland was the ONLY coach from any of the Lions nations who didn't rule himself out! Jones, Schmidt, Cotter and Townsend all ruled themselves out. You say credit where it is due whilst denying the achievements of Jones and Schmidt are superior to those of Gatland and denying that Gatland has one of the worst winning %ages of any of the modern coaches of Lions nations...
