I doubt that means they will be more critical, and will continue to tow the NZRPA/NZR party line.

The podcast (only listened to 1st half) was pretty worthless. Everyone's a great player and every team will make the playoffs etc ...

I only used to watch it on Sky as I could FF a recording.

@Unite They completely avoided the ABs. Only talked about the Super Rugby season ...

That’s pretty bad, the biggest rugby story in NZ for a while

@Unite I guess they can't ignore it on the week that the new coach is announced?

I emailed them and queried this omission. Apparently a 15 min update episode will be coming out today.

@Unite Interesting. Guess that they can't completely ignore it.

@Unite Looks like it's here:

They appear distinctly uncomfortable just saying the truth.
James Parsons looks like he's about to shit himself.
On the whole, they are so non-committal.

@Tim How much did Scott Robertson pay them for that PR? They ignored the terrible results and performances of the last two years. Pure spin for the only All Blacks head coach ever to be so bad at the job he got sacked.
