    @Crucial are the players able to truly be honest in these feedbacks, or are the questions not designed to get to the heart of the problem?

    I know this is NPC, but I hear the same sorts of stuff coming out of Northland and people I know in and around players, with players unhappy with similar stuff to the ABs', thier messaging, tactics etc, yet come end of year reviews, they get renewed.

    Seems a disconnect there??

    As much as NZR get stick about these things they sometime do run reviews with honest feedback. The recent one on the women's game and BlackFerns a case in point.

    Even if they do the old 360degree feedback things, those rely on a culture of speaking openly.

        @MN5 that was the only good thing to.cpmw.out of the test.

        The fact this result brings @BartMan out if hibernation says it all.

        Who next, @Red-Beard ? Any others ?

        I have just made room for Foster in the basement.

        Welcome back mate

          Ian Foster must go as part of an All Blacks rebuild
          Marc Hinton
          13:00, Jul 18 2022
          
          OPINION: Ian Foster is surely a goner. Among the laundry list of issues the board of New Zealand Rugby has to work through over the next few days around the All Blacks, that decision should take the least of their time.
          
          The board, we now know unequivocally, got it patently wrong when they extended Foster’s contract as All Blacks head coach through to the 2023 World Cup last year based on back-to-back home victories over a weak Wallabies side. Now these guardians of the game in this country must put their hands up and concede (as I noted at the time) that the decision was premature, and horrendously erroneous.
          
          Any other course of action could lead to the provinces wondering whether they have the right people running the game in this country.

            if this was the NRL or the AFL you would not be able to hear yourself for the media drums beating and beating hard for blood.

            NZ rugby coaches are the most protected species in world sport.

                I'm trying to decide whether the relative silence out of the NZRU at the moment is just normal, or whether something may actually be brewing as a result...

                        @KiwiMurph Classic case of post hoc ergo prompter hoc. Ireland are only ranked number one in the world because they beat New Zealand in New Zealand. It's not like they came down here ranked number one.

                          And maybe he might also like to berate the NZRFU for being bullies and inflicting the sort of drivel that they have shoved at us under the guise of the All Blacks these last 12 months or so.

                            We did not underestimate the Irish. How could we?
                            What we did was overestimate the All Blacks

                            And it wasn't one loss Martin, it was a few thanks mate.

                              Nothing Hansen says in relation to Foster can be trusted.

                              Look at the comments under the video.
                              No one is buying this BS anymore.

                                      Did I read correctly that Foster is on $1,000,000 per year salary? No wonder he is reluctant to go.
