New Zealand rugby bosses are explaining their decision to remove Scott Robertson from his role as All Blacks coach today.
Razor has left the role just two years into his four-year contract.
A review into the 2025 season was scathing of Robertson’s coaching and leadership, with NZR chairman David Kirk deciding to pull the pin on Robertson.
The recent review was undertaken by Kirk, NZR board member and former test hooker Keven Mealamu and former NZR high performance manager Don Tricker.
In a statement, Robertson said coaching the team had been the "honour of my life", but he was "gutted by this outcome".
Player unrest has been building even from the end of 2024, Robertson’s first year in charge.
Under Robertson, the team registered 20 wins from 27 matches, a 74% success rate. But that was mixed in with some shock and heavy defeats and also, to many observers, a lack of improvement or change.
