Robertson echoed those sentiments: "We are always talking to agents. He is a quality player. We would love to have him playing in the All Blacks jersey, yeah." "
I'd like to see Robertson focus more on bringing his oft-praised skills in developing players to the fore rather than relying on overseas-based players returning to NZ. Use older, returning players like Barrett to impart experience for sure, but only as a short-term thing.
He's got 4 years, plenty of goodwill and access to the top players in NZ. Might be a few uncomfortable losses along the way as he builds and develops, but needs time/space to get on with it.

The cock-in-mouth piece on Razor on TV tonight shows that the media are 100% onside.
He sounds interesting and I 100% hope he is successful, but fuck me if he isn't talked up as the messiah.
He’s the Ethan Blackadder of coaches

As long as he isn't the Todd Blackadder of coaches.

Interesting Read gives a bit of an insight in to Razor's approach to the AB coaching role.
That is tantalising, having read that I feel like there is great hope for the future
I'm totally on board with Razor but I felt that article told me a whole bunch of nothing (which is fine - there isn't much to tell at this stage).
-
@KiwiMurph yeah I gave up halfway through as it was just recapping the past year and adding the odd Razor quote which paraphrased as "I'm a coach who is going to coach".

Yep. Give the bloke a chance. Only been in the role for a few weeks and people are expecting deep, profound insights and predictions of certain glory.

Not enough muscles. Needs more weights, less speed work.

problem is the campaign run forhim/by him for the last 4 year meaning theres nothing new to know

I am completely on board with Razor ( as I am with all AB coaches), but have to agree looked very much like that was an Eddie Jones type thing last night. I am here now and it's going to be about me?
I do say probably wasn't what it was about at all, but something that struck me when Mrs said to me doesn't it sound like he is making it all about himself? Just could well of been how it was editted or questions were asked by Sumo. -

Razor came off well in the video I thought.
it got me excited again
not sure we needed the comparison to the AB's fortunes but thats on TVNZ rather than razor so yeah, think he came across well

I can see how players like to play for him , hopefully it works at the next level
-
@Stargazer yep mate as I said it was also maybe how questions were answered etc, and to be fair as you say it was program about him, and perhaps I just not overly keen on programs on coaches before they startedjob? Could be good as got us thinking rugby.

The temptation for a new coach is to miss lessons learned (not gonna use the other stupid word) during the previous tenure in the rush to stamp their own mark. If he's taking the time to debrief the senior players that is a good sign to me
im sure its been done before. i would be more surprised if they didnt
