Can't be particularly impressive or ambitious to stick around as an age group coach for 6 years. I'd rather have Bazeley and that's saying something. NZF should call up Ramon ASAP. Truly gutting that NZF turned down the chance to match/counter Des' Mumbai offer because they thought they were getting Herdman. 
Agree with the call for Tribulietx, even if he didn't apply after years of being snubbed they should make an offer to him. There are also competent candidates in the A-League who could make good international coaches. I am not sure I would take Bazeley at any cost. Even Jason Pine has openly said Bazeley is not the man for the All Whites:
 
"The big question now is what NZF do next. They’ve lost their man (if they ever had him) and will no doubt take lessons from the way this has played out, but they still need an All Whites coach. They’ve failed to secure Herdman, had their number two candidate Des Buckingham withdraw from the race and told Phoenix coach Ufuk Talay he’s not the man they’re after. Much as interim coach Darren Bazeley is a faithful and loyal servant, he’s not the man to lead the All Whites. Once they’ve dealt with the extremely awkward fallout from this and the inevitable questions about their apparent gullibility, NZF will need to go back to the market."
