[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 1122077, member: 45598"] Without Joe, we don't have the team we do today and Farrell likely isn't as good a coach after having three years experience with him. Schmidt had one bad year, following on from the best year Irish rugby has ever had. His failure in the end was not trusting guys who hadn't enough experience in his set up, playing Henshaw at 15 instead of a real fullback and not dropping Best, Murray and Stander despite middling to poor form really killed us in 2019, these are common among nearly any coach hitting that 6 year mark with a national team and its something he'd have most likely learned from. Still our best coach until Farrell starts filling the trophy cabinet. Promoting Schmidt would be as good a move as any NZ can make, he's done with Leinster what Robertson is doing with the Crusaders also. [/QUOTE]
