He's not had a great time back in NZ. There's no chance of him getting the AB job he wants.
first thing he’d do is sign AWJ

He's not good enough to coach the AB

No he isn't but then again I have doubts over the current incumbent as well.

Had Gatland made a success of his stint in Super Rugby then he'd have had a good shout of the role post world cup. The AB selectors didn't seem to like the youthful Robertson last time round, seemed to want more experience.

He hasn’t got the style that would adhere himself to the fans either

Cameron Woki is to join Racing92 in July. Although he had a year to go on his contract with Union Bordeaux /Bègles, an agreement has apparently been reached to release him.

Curtis Rona is trying to secure an early release from the last 2 years of his contract with London Irish, with a view to returning to Australia.

Confirmed Bears playing SA in November.

I miss our International games but with the cap being lower I don't know if i would personally want any more yet, maybe when the cap is up and the squad more fuller.

Bears will be buying that game won’t they? Paying SA for appearing as a publicity game to attract / entertain fans. Presumably that spend is outside any cap so fans get something in compensation for league. A vanity project but fine if they want to do it. Is it in their “off” weekend from the Prem? European based SA players will not be included as outside international release window.

17th November - Thursday - That is in the international window so it could be a relatively strong team that is fielded.

Yep though no England players for Bristol so the drop off in quality between their starting props and back up options Vs Bok internationals (even back up ones) might make for uncomfortable viewing at scrum time. Well if you're a Bristol fan anyway.

Yes, just as Tigers did when we hosted Australia, South Africa, Argentina, Classic All Blacks etc.
