Over to you Mr Kirk.
Do what needs to be done, or are you a waste of a salary too?
What do you expect Kirk to do?
To boldly go.....?
Seriously, ask the right questions and find out what the actual problems are - not what we think they are.
Let's not repeat the mistake of blaming it all on the coach - not that I'm defending the useless twat.
I agree with what you say, but genuinely he's not the NZR board, he's just the chairman. It's up to board to ask questions through the CEO. Remember what happened in Aus when the chairman thout he ran the whole game?
Kirk is probably in the driving seat right now. Not saying he'll take decisions on his own, but he's in a position to ask the right questions (starting to already) and seems smart enough to cut thru the snake oil and ensure he and the new CEO get the right answers

There needs to be some sort of political heave to oust Razor, whether he has the whip hand himself or not.
His assistants can go too.
Scooter should be stripped.
I not a Robertson fan etc, but no way is there any sense in removing him, just setting up next coach for failure. But as I said that not up to Kirk, it's up to board surely.
And even the captain (although not sure he should have job by any means, as I not convinced he in top 2 locks) , but it can only be coach that appoints captain.I not a fucking newbie to the English language.

@MN5 Parker was better today than Holland was, to be fair... You only notice Holland because he's jumping in lineouts.
You’ve really missed what I was saying
In what sense?

Look, the point I’m making is there’s no way we’ll see Scott Parker in an AB jersey in 2026, I hope @Mr-Fish realises that

To be honest Bones, I don't check anything I write as I never really get that worried about mistakes etc.
And I admit to getting a bit of amusement out of your schoolmarm panties twist when I do it.
