    Isn't this kinda what the director of rugby role that nh clubs have been doing for ever is?

    Not saying its right, one assumes this is what Razor sold to nzr

    It does seem odd that the wouldn't have been aware exactly what he was selling when they bought it

    Well the Gregor Paul article did mention there was no one from a high performance perspective on the panel making the decision....

    um, the performance of the high performance staff is also due for scrutiny!

    @MN5 Parker was better today than Holland was, to be fair... You only notice Holland because he's jumping in lineouts.

    You’ve really missed what I was saying

    In what sense?

    Cos Scott Parker never played. I think Simon Parker did though.

    Next you'll be saying Reeves didn't score a try.

    Aaron Leonard Brine got a farewell match too.

    Don't be salty.

    Bit chippy tonite...

    It all started with the comment from @Mr-Fish too. This is not a coincidence

    I can see what your angling at..

    you're

    I was using the possessive - referring to his angling (a noun). e.g. you might ask Robertson: "where your coaching at?" 😎

    Under pressure to keep their spots? I’d say two of them are done no matter what they pull out in Super Rugby.

    Can see why they're targeted.

    But ...
    I suspect SB still has more to give while we transition to the new breed, just not as skipper. But there are 6 test class locks currently in the mix (and Beehre is the new great white hype).

    And both ALB and RI looked sharper than wunderkind Proctor. Suggest the latter has a bit to prove as well.

    I'll believe it when I see them dropped. Not holding my breath.

    Nothing changes unless Razor gets sent to the Principal's office and forced to make changes

    In any decent coaching regime all five would be surplus to requirements and jettisoned.

    Whilst it may seem harsh to drop two Barretts at once its worth pointing out theres another one who'll make it. The Whettons never had that luxury.

    @booboo Ioane could also return a better player after spending some time with some good coaches 😉

    We should send Arikinui Proctor and LF over as well too then if that's the case. 😉

    Yeah he did, although I was just being bitchy pointing out the proposed messiah's at centre didn't really perform to the standard of the hype attributed to them.
