I guess the question becomes
If you only get rid of Scott Hansen
Who the hell takes over the lead role? Nick Evans? ROG (Who at least has worked with Razor in the past?)?
With a hellish 2026 test season coming up it feels like delaying the inevitable if the trust is gone

@KiwiMurph I don't see how you can recruit another head coach but keep Robertson as head coach. Just seems impossible to me.
Untenable

For what it's worth I've heard second hand from a source that Razor is gone and Joseph is being lined up.
7 upvotes in three minutes is a pretty damning indicator of how much TSF likes Razor these days.

it was dramatic enough when it went from 0-100 yesterday....but now we've gone back to "nothings will happen" and back to clean house in a couple of hours

More movement than the entire AB's backline managed last season.

my theory is that he's the victim of expectation

After Hansen's reign got stale, then Foster was seen as nothing more than a mediocre continuation that didn't exactly sparkle, Razor was supposed to come in like a breath of fresh air and shake it all up. We were promised so much, and there was an air of optimism.
Then year 1 was business as usual really, but he was given the "a bit of continuity while he finds his feet" excuse.
Then year 2 was more of the same, combined with some really ropey performances, and everyone turned far harder than i think anyone expected, including NZ Rugby. -
