That sounds like the major spots are locked in. Maybe a mentor, or just skills coaches?

Manager. Mental skills. There's a heap to be replaced

Great news.
The blues are better under Leon but is he ready to be assistant AB coach? Seems to be outcoached on key games IMHO.

It depends on his role I suppose,
Back coach or defence coach. -

McCullum to leave his England cricket role and become Manager. Derren Brown, mental skills. Now that’s thinking outside the box.

McMillan is the guy I'd like to see coaching the All Black's defense, he's filled that role for last few seasons until this year I think.
He wouldn't work with Razor though as they are both out and out head coaches & I'd say Clayton will commit to the Chiefs until at least 2025.

Let’s get the best analytical coach of the past 30 years on the team, masterstroke!
Well, we do keep being told by those in the know that Roberston is a coaching genius, the like of which we've never seen before....
But on a serious note, I hope he's actually smart, open and humble enough to get input from the likes of Mr Smith.

Razor does defence, so unless he has no portfolio, defence coach not required. Bye bye McLeod, please

Gatland was the defence coach last year for the Chiefs. This year it is David Hill.

It seems McMillan only coached the defense in 2021.
"This coming season Gatland was poised to take over the lineout portfolio, which McMillan had overseen in 2022 following the departure of forwards coach Neil Barnes at the conclusion of the 2021 season, when McMillan was tasked with defence."

Robertson is understood to have settled on, and now informed, his preferred All Blacks coaching team. That includes incumbent forwards coach Jason Ryan leading the scrum/lineout/breakdown, Blues head coach Leon MacDonald taking charge of attacking shape, highly-regarded Crusaders assistant Scott Hansen overseeing defence and Holland designing strike plays.
For New Zealand Rugby, the awkward ramifications of signing off that team would involve telling All Blacks assistants Scott McLeod (defence) and Greg Feek (scrum) they will soon be on the outer as part of a widespread cleanout, with head coach Ian Foster and Joe Schimdt already signposting their intent to move on after the World Cup.

Weird take by NZH

If that's the coaching lineup I hope there's a non coaching selector.. a similar role to Fox had recently
Robertson will obviously be a selector. MacDonald probably will and he has a good knowledge of the Blues region now. I would like to see a selector from the Chiefs or Hurricanes region to provide more first hand knowledge of players from those areas
