About this episode
All Blacks head coach Scott 'Razor' Robertson is out of the role just two years into his four-year contract.
After reports of widespread frustration from players and staff and a damning internal review, questions remain – what went so wrong for Razor, what does this mean for our world cup campaign and who will have the job of cleaning up the mess?
The All Blacks drama spells the beginning of a huge year for sport.
2026 sees hopes of a record medal haul for New Zealand at the Winter Olympics, and a chance to cheer on the All Whites on the world stage.
And of course, we’re all curious to see how Netball NZ will rebuild public trust?
All this and more today on The Front Page, with Herald sports reporter Alex Powell.
