    Razor is far from popular on here - but I think backing Savea over him sets a dangerous precedent and makes it IMPOSSIBLE for a new coach.

    It rewards player power - and I can’t see how that is beneficial.

    Hansen is goneburger it seems, and if Razor follows, Ardie should too IMO.

    @frugby Yep. Player power shouldn't have saved Foster, and nor should it see the end of Robertson. You take the feedback sure, but any sort of 'him or me' shit means that person should go.

    thats my point from earlier, several of these guys played juts the same under fozzie so not sure razor is the whole problem

    All Blacks review: Ardie Savea future in doubt as NZ Rugby faces player revolt

    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/rugby/all-blacks/all-blacks-review-ardie-savea-future-in-doubt-as-nz-rugby-faces-player-revolt/JYQLJCBKVVANPAHV442GARJ3KY/

    Why does Liam Napier labour under the belief losing a loose forward who does nothing is somehow a negative?

    So Liam Napier has confirmed @Nogusta's oil on Papalii. Remember you heard it on the Fern first.

    @Chris apparently only short term tho must change methods .
    I'm not even sure that's true tho a lot what him out 50/50 .
    Camp going ahead with which coaches?

    Razor and Ryan fitness trainers and medical staff.I am not sure if Hanson will attend depends if he agrees to certain things.

    Maybe a new coach to be added soon to replace Holland.

    so according to you the outcome of this review is... nothing

    No surprise is it

    something we can all agree on

    I think the lacklustre effort in the 2nd SA test is starting to make alot more sense.

    @Tim But he is too weak to name him in the article.

    @george33 Not exactly. There is a heap of rumours, I think it is fairly simple:

    Some players don’t like Razor
    Everyone thinks Hansen is a fluffybunny

    That’s the outcome of the review - and I don’t think we needed a review to work that one out.

    What is unclear is how this will be resolved, which will be revealed by the end of this week.

    Says Savea is unhappy with the selection?????

    What does he also think himself and Beauden should be bench players at best.

    @Tim Herald getting a sniff apparently.

    Big scoop when a story went online 20 mins before your post.

    (To be fair, you've been doing some good work otherwise!)

    As I said earlier, it seems like its gone beyond the point of nothing happening and carrying on as per status quo going into this season.

    We can't surely expect nothing to happen after all this?

    Maybe Ardie is upset they are not picking Julian at 12.

    @george33 it's all very interesting like Is Jamie Joseph in meetings of some sorts this week? I see several landers players haven't been at logan park the last few days, Angus Ta'avo on his instagram is Queenstown, Stanley Solomon in Wellington.

    I think this is one of the more intriguing things. Would seem odd to take time off in the middle of pre-season!

    Particularly as all the other teams are training. I had heard Joseph was taking a more relaxed approach this year, but this seems extreme.

    Sam Casey just said on Sports Nation that Savea had already signed with R360. But when that was postponed to 2028 he now wants to stay in Japan or play in Europe. I’m sorry but Savea has to go if the coaches are sacked. If coaches position are untenable then so is Savea’s position.

    Did Ardie want to play 8 and they told him him was playing 7?

    Ardie Savea will make an absolute fortune when he inevitably releases a book.

    Sad thing is the joke possibility that we could end up with Robertson and Hansen sacked and Jason Ryan kept on with Ardie Savea and Beauden Barrett appointed as his interim assistant coaches is actually a possibility.

    They've been given the back half of the week off but have all been given training programmes to knock off. So still training I guess but remotely. Changing things up which the players are enjoying apparently.
