The Black Ferns now have an all-male coaching team.

The trio of Tony Christie, Steve Jackson and Mike Delany will join Black Ferns Director of Rugby Allan Bunting to round off the coaching staff for the World Cup winning team.

Sports journalist and former player Alice Soper isn't surprised by the all-male lineup, as they didn't have any credible women short-listed for the Black Ferns coaching roles.

"What we've got at the moment is a bit of a lopsided landscape. People would probably look around and go- oh, well we've got a couple of head coaches now in Opiki with the Super Rugby competition. That's true, but we've now got three."
