If it is Evans then great to have someone who has been outside of the bubble. See if he can last 6 months before he’s on the phone to Rangi.
Neuter little Scott and maybe he has a chance to make a difference

I hope Evans is sure of what the job description is .... I could see him wanting to make changes and getting push back from the current coaches, may not be a fun time for him much like MacDonald and Holland.
Hopefully not and I'm just being pessimisticFor a single coach to make a change he really needs to be a selector too. I doubt that happens
-
@Duluth you'd hope with him being on the outside watching this unfold for 2 years, along with NZR supposedly aware of the issues there would be a bit of pressure on Razor to make some changes to how they do things, you'd hope
Hope or hopeless...

Extraordinary. Holland has gone from the AB coaching group back to the Canes as an asisstant coach. Man, think of the paycut!

aren't the Canes a bit bankrupt? Running ongoing deficits at the moment? I would be shocked if a Super assistant got anything like the same money as an AB coach.

Yeah, they're a basket case which should be disbanded and replaced by a fiscally responsible team based in Hawkes Bay.
But, setting that aside, I think he'll just be getting paid out of a broader NZR pool rather than just the Canes assigned pool of money for crappy coaches.

Surely alarm bells are ringing at NZR.
Perhaps they're being drowned out by the claxons!

Then it's a serious waste of money, isn't it?

Maybe but I doubt it. But it is a stunning fall from being an assistant AB coach..

They've already sent out Lendrum to try to beat it down, which doesn't look like panic at all....

Daniel Carter only won it twice, in 04 and 05....and never since.
