Ian Foster’s future will be decided this week after the All Blacks’ tour to South Africa is discussed.
Foster remains the head coach of All Blacks for the time being, after the pressure-relieving victory against South Africa.
NZ Rugby chief Mark Robinson confirmed to media on Sunday that he will meet with team management when everyone gets home.

A big final 10 minutes sees the All Blacks topple their hosts in Ellis Park.
Only then will further comments be made. The results of the tour debrief are expected to be announced later this week.
“We believe we know where we stand and we just have to work through it,” Robinson said.
“We will take stock of the situation and the information coming out of the camp and make a decision.”
Robinson said the coach’s appointment is ultimately the responsibility of the New Zealand Rugby board.

New Zealand Rugby chief Mark Robinson said the board will ultimately decide the fate of Ian Foster.
“All we can really say is that we’re focused on getting everyone home, and we’ll have some conversations over the next few days.”
Robinson said Foster and his team have had the support of NZ Rugby.
“We just have to get through this little period to understand where the next steps are with this management team.”
He stressed that the entire management team will be looked at, not just Foster’s position.
