I honestly don't think anyone wanted the Gig. Schmidt had committed to staying on as Ireland coach until the next wordcup. You have to basically take a gap year to do this job, and Gatland was the best option they had available to them. With the way the Newzealand team are playing it's hard to see any team beating them on their own patch. But here's hoping.
