    I’m sure someone on here mentioned Whitelock coming back a few months ago.
    Do we know for certain it’s Razor chasing him. Or maybe he’s coming back for other reasons. But it fits the media’s narrative this way.
    Don’t believe everything you read in the media.
    Also people’s opinions on here mean absolutely nothing in the real world.
    Just my opinion though.

      What I have heard is Whitelock would play SR next season and potentially some of this seasons SR.

        @george33 you do realise he has analysts that cut up all the footage for him.
        He doesn’t sit there watching full games one after the other.
        He also has assistant coaches that go to games. Maybe he’s been overseas fulfilling sponsors requirements.

          I'll have to remember all this sage advice about experience when Barrett is starting at ten for Razor.

                    Are people getting outraged over rumours…or is there a thread of hard evidence that Robertson is begging whitelock to come back??

                        I can understand wanting guys like Whitelock in and around the current crop of locks, but given we have Barrett currently who is vastly experienced, he is the one we should be looking to for bringing in the next generation through, Lord in particular is one I hope is fit and selected.

                        Frizell is a bit of a myth IMO, while Ryan rated him, this was presumably off the back of trainings and 1 very good game.

                        Assuming this is fact and not distorted.

                            I guess the tweet was just ripped from this article

                              Do you think a role for him as a specialist lineout coach with the All Blacks is a possibility? A mentor/coach for the young locks coming through?

                                I think at the time it was more people's fustration that Foster was appointed to what is supposed to be the most prestigious coaching role in the country given there were probably about 50 higher qualified candidates

                                Yep I think that could happen.

                                  As noted in another thread, hopefully Razor's mind control over referees will still be a thing when he's coaching a level up.

                                    “Sam left an enduring legacy here at the Crusaders, and we can see that in the quality of locks we have, now under the tutelage of Scott Barrett,” said chief executive Colin Mansbridge.

                                    “Once a Crusader, always a Crusader, but as far as we know he’s on a two-year deal with Section Pau.”
