I feel like we need a TLDR - time line - review.
From the beginning of the rumors and talk about the players reviewYou said it was a quiet day at work, go for it
Mate I can’t finish a Fernies I started 3 years ago what makes you think I can compile 1,500 comments here into something that makes sense

A coaching team of Brown, Schmidt and Kidwell would certainly provide some intel on each of your Rugby Championship opponents...
am im the only one thats causious about schmidt, not his skill...but hasnt he stepped away early from the last three roles due to personal commitments? whihc i dont blame him for, family first...but if your going to commit...you have to see it through
I'm sure it would be like in the Foster days, advisory only.

Been said earlier in the thread, but well played with sharing the oil!
Some others too who joined in (@handa457 and @Landers92 and @Chris and who am I missing?), brilliant work to you all for just kindly sharing what you've heard.Big shout out to @Nogusta that the oil on Papalii that has finally been confirmed
I didn't want to share what happened between DP and AB management but I think everyone can get the gist of it.
It was a MAJOR factor in terms of the disharmony in the squad this year with a LOT of the team really put off by what happened. -
Getting Tony Brown in would be great with the impending tour of South Africa looming.
We can get inside intel on tactics and he can tell us where the Springboks get the best "hot sauce".
Flash Forward to June 2026 when a 120kg 6ft 5 Cam Roigard runs a Bronco in 90 seconds with a 10kg weight vest on.

Ok so this what I have amongst all the rumours etc take it for what it is.
The Board is being presented the Review findings today.
Razor has not officially been sacked yet the Board has to vote on it.
Probably will happen as the Board normally goes with the recommendation's from the Review.
Razor has asked to present to the board before any final decisions are made.
From a good source but there is many different stories out there.Good luck to him. With the press and SM now in overdrive he's a dead man walking.
Shit first 2026 squad selection and the noise will ramp up.
First loss and it'll resurface.
First bad loss and it'll be deafening. Then NZR will look like fools for not acting earlier.

@nostrildamus said in All Blacks 2026:
So NZR pretend to not hire Joseph and Brown, send them overseas like little Trojan horses, then bring them back just before the RWC with all this secret other team knowledge and install them as RWC AB coaches? Brilliant. Had us all fooled.

No doubt he should just walk he will not turn this around time to move with dignity.

And Tony will know which dish Suzie will be adding extra 'flavours' to at the next RWC..

"Scott Robertson has departed as Head Coach of the All Blacks. We wish Razor all the best with his next steps.
A process will commence immediately to recruit a new Head Coach."
So Razor gets cut. I blame the Fern.
Ryan, Hansen? Goneski? Under review?Edit: ok, answered.
-
If Hansen and Ryan are allowed to stay, would they want to? Seemed pretty loyal to Robertson...
