@Dice I cant recall who it was (my grey memory says Craig Dowd or John Timu) did some Ballet training saying it was excellent for stability, strength and balance.
As an aside, a number of NBA players back in the day did ballet training to help with footwork and balance.

Leon will come in soon . Then razor as an assistant once he gets over his knee surgery and joe Schmidt will be head coach. Then Joe Schmidt will step away and Razor will be head coach.

@taniwharugby couple of AB's, a few Harbour players and a host of Olympians used to be in my Pilates class. All us elite athletes together....

@chchfanatic Is that your prediction or have you heard more?
-
@dogmeat so you were the failure of the class, or you just prefer the anonymity of TSF to hide your fame?

Dreams are free, paying out fat foster is not, sadly

if @chchfanatic is that confident he is probably right.He has a source, Some things he has told me have been dead right.

Wrestling would be a fantastic training tool for rugby players. It’s more than just strength. It’s balance and knowing how to use your strength.
Not wrestling, but the teams sometimes do work with Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gyms for the same reason. The Blues and Crusaders were the first I remember hearing about doing that.. maybe 15 years ago

@Frank stuff article says he wants to win the RWC with NZ and another team....

@Machpants I dont know exact timeframe. How long does a new knee take to settle down. I’d say after the eoyt for changes and then Schmidt steps down after World Cup.

I was coming in to post my speculation that he would be brought in as an assistant or selector on the quid pro quo that he advances to the top job following next year's WC.

@taniwharugby I told the owner of the Studio that she should use me and Terenzo Bozzone in her point of sale
as a Before and After scenario. No prizes for guessing which I was

Interesting that Razor praised a few assistant coaches from overseas in his interview. That is another aspect, a lot of teams (not ABs) bring in assistant coaches from overseas. Even SA have done so in the past. Maybe NZ rugby is too insular at the moment. Having a back's coach like Ronan O'Gara or Catt or a defense coach from the NH could make a difference. At least bring in fresh ideas.

Stupid click bait headline, bombshell my arse. That's was what signed up for ages ago, long enough to compete for ABs spot post 23 RWC, with the option too stay another year. But really he said he was staying for that 2024+ post, and he'd go overseas if he didn't get it. Read what he actually said, herald are the worst click bait fluffybunnies ATM
Scott Robertson's NZ rugby bombshell: If ABs don't want me, I'm going overseas
