Until they get jack of his authoritarian approach.
I don't think modern players will deal at all well his approach.

When did Jones last coach anything? Seems like a long time ago & a very odd choice or am I missing the bleeding obvious?

Yep, you're missing the bleeding obvious.
Jones is obviously being developed and groomed to take over from Gibson in 2019
Either that or someone at HQ thinks this is a marketing masterstroke to promote the Ba Baas game.

cant decide if that would be:
A) a terrible idea
B) what the NSWRU & the tahs deserve
C) not half bad
D) if they should give him a board position
E) whether it's worth it if it gets him off the radio

You think the worm may have turned with comments like these, but actions need to reflect the words

Maybe it is hoped it will buy his silence on governance and national coaching issues - he has hooked into Patsy and Cheika in the past.Yep, you're missing the bleeding obvious.

Sorry that was a dig at other states being overlooked for Japan
But i assume if this meeting has anything to do with Super than Japan will now have to be included in all talks.
And saying "competitions" could be NRC, sevens, Womens rugby, 10s. But i honestly havent heard or seen anything so just speculation. i hope it is to do with NRC personally and what to do in regaining or getting a new major sponsor. i like the NRC and want to see it succeed

Okay, a bit of speculation. Have there been any hints of reviving the Australian Rugby Shield?
Might tie in with a Downs/Qld Country theme. I know there have been clamourings for more to be happening for country rugby and smaller states. Out of interest, the Victorian Axemen have also apparently been revived recently.
There are a few more cynical musings I could trot out here, but will keep those under my tinfoil hat for now.

This is sounding good:

One of the things that might be making the NZ Super teams so good, and thus, the AB's, is the fact that they collaborate really well. Perhaps a super team in NZ doesn't just have it's own strengths to draw upon, but the strengths of all the super sides in NZ. Together, maybe they make each individual team better than it would be otherwise - through collaboration.

That's literally the model they use in NZ.
