The 58-year-old has achieved something few thought he could last year, when he was only saved from the sack by the intervention of the players after a series of poor results, by taking them to Saturday’s final.Foster may be in the odd position come 2100 GMT on Saturday of lifting the Webb Ellis trophy and yet being the soon to be ex-All Blacks head coach — Scott Robertson was named in his post earlier this year with Foster refusing to re-apply.
Foster — who stepped up to the top role in 2019 after faithfully serving as Steve Hansen’s assistant from 2012 — said the motivation to win came from both within themselves and the great victories of the past.“We get it from the history and the legacy of the jersey, which is massive for us,” he said.“We get it from the people we represent, our families and our past.
