    @Donsteppa they'd probably respond well to the farm animal analogies, without fully understanding

    Who's leading the AB's January camp?

    As of today the players don’t know whether it is still going ahead

    Which is farcical.

    Couldn't the powers that be get someone who was around in 1987 to give the "this is how we came together after deep division then" talk?

    Get a Laurie Mains or one of the 1995 squad to talk about how they got that thing going after tough times?

    Then someone to weigh them, get them running a bronco test, a sing song and then home?

    @African-Monkey Like a turd in a swimming pool. Imagine a meeting between the players and him.

    This is not the first time and it won't be the last. All can be healed.

    I hate to say it but we need some insights from SA so I’m on the Tony Brown train.

    Same here.
    I just hope he doesn't show the job advert to Rassie.
    For according to Captain Kirk: “It’s the greatest rugby coaching role in the world and we’re very hopeful we’ll see plenty of highly qualified candidates.”

    That might rile a few Bok feathers...

    Scott Hansen gives me serious fraud vibes, there is something non genuine about him, not sure what it is but just gives me the ick.

    @chimoaus Knew he was a fraud from his first press conference rambling on about the blackness of the jersey and fern.

    @chimoaus Wasn't Bryn Hall gushing over the bloke when he was announced as an assistant coach for the ABs? I actually thought he was the next Wayne Smith the way Bryn simp'd for him. What a dud!

    The camp was to be on Sunday I presume Hanson and Ryan are running it they are still as of now the coaches they havn’t been moved on yet.Offically they are the AB coaches now.
    If I was NZR I would not be having a camp until this is all sorted.Maybe that is what will happen.

    Hall is a Razor homer though, totally lacking in objectivity

    @MacDazzler He has that shit doesn't stink sort of attitude and just comes across like a politician trying to say all the right things without saying anything at all.

    There is no point. Postpone it until a new team is announced

    @canefan I assume the players get paid to do it so I wouldn't want to deprive them of some easy summer cash to run around in their budgie smugglers at the beach.

    Ironic if JJ gets the job and keeps Hanson,
    They did get on well and had a good working relationship along with Brown with Japan for a couple of years through to the WC when Japan did well.

    That would be the logical thing to do.

    If Razor wasn't really coaching and was more motivating does that not mean that Hansen/Ryan were doing the majority of actual coaching and perhaps they are to blame for the stupid tactics and play? I don't know how any of them keep their jobs, should be a clean slate and everyone applies.

    I hope he's smart enough to realise that Hansen is persona non grata with the team now. Otherwise he isn't the man we're looking for
