International rugby coaching. It's no easy game.
Especially in the modern day, where every result has the potential to make you or break you in the eyes of the masses.
It takes a certain type of character to be successful, but sustaining that success is another matter altogether. There are only a select few who have what it takes to get to the top and stay there.
We tasked a number of our followers to rank the best coaches around with Eddie Jones ranked fifth while two of France's coaches ranked above the controversial Aussie.
Michael Cheika and Dave Rennie found themselves sixth and seventh respectively with Wales' Wayne Pivac and Scotland's Gregor Townsend both ranked above the All Blacks Ian Foster in 10th.
