Apparently good chance AWs have secured a friendly(ies) for the March window.
However to not include Ramon amongst the applicants, just because he maybe a few months late completing his pro licence would be petty.
That's not saying he's the best person for the job - being a big fish in the tiny NZ football pond won't mean that much to senior players like Reid, Smith, Wood (not that they would have heard of Hudson before he was appointed).
Also who know's who else is out there in the big football world that is going to put their hand up - just that there is hardly a rapid urgency to appoint a coach.
