Just going back a few hundred posts am not sure we ever sorted out who the hell Sam Casey is.
I understand he is some sort of journalist. Who does he work for? Where were his rumours shared? Is it on line? Is there a link?
See this post:

@junior that’s fair. I may be getting ahead of myself there. I have a source who’s a sporting journalist who can repeat the Savea rumour. But he couldn’t confirm if true. (hell he might have even just heard it from someone here).
He does have done good oil. And is close to a few blues players. He told me end of 2024 about some issues between Razor & Papalii.
But as I said, may be getting ahead of myself
Without trying to look through millions of previous posts what happened here again ? did Papalii get selected on the EOYT and then turn it down ? is that the issue that is referred to in the video that @Duluth shared ?

The stuff about Mark Anthony for one just isn't true he had been talking to Brighton months ago signed that contract in December,Didn't want to announce it until after the review was finished as it cleaned uphis last work for NZR
Yes that's the bit I believe the least. That process with Brighton would've taken quite some time. Much more than him ringing around saying "hey I need a job, anything goin?"

If it true that Robertson and Hansen have gone, then that's one helluva a scoop for the Fern.
I haven't seen any print journalists go anywhere near this yet. So yeah, I'm sceptical.
Probably too embarrassed after fawning over him a couple of years back.

@booboo said in All Blacks 2026:
Watson on Devlin's podcast also mentioning rumours that Hansen is gone. What he has heard apparently.
Given Hansen is apparently the head coach he should be sacked after the last two years. Diabolical.

Will Razor's ego allow him to stay if NZR guy his team and install new coaches?
I wouldn't call it ego necessarily, but if someone forces assistants you don't want on you at the expense of someone you have worked with for a long time and have loyalty to, some people would walk.

Yeah that would be it Loyalty to people.

That may make him walk knowing his mantra.
"Together we walk" haha

Potentially, ironic if it happens

He's the captain of the ship, so I'd be comfortable with him walking too

My ideal scenario is Hansen is sacked.
Ardie goes to Japan and isn't selected again.
Scott Barrett isn't burdened with the captaincy.
Some semblance of logic is applied to the selection process for the next squad.
