Ok I have not said much when we signed Crotty,Halfpenny,Heinz then Franks
Was not impressed
Then McNicol now Arnold well I can now confirm Rob Penny,James Marshall especially have completely lost the plot.Can you please inform me why James Marshall and Dan Perrin got appointed Crusaders as assistants? They have lead Ta$man to 7th, 8th, 7th since they've been there, they have lost far more games than they've won and the Mako$ have looked abysmally coached under their watch. It just doesn't make any sense to me, they haven't got a coaching record that justifies their roles.
I don’t know why to be honest,
I thought they were bad decisions at the time.
Razor Scott Hansen and Tamiti Ellison were the real brains of the operation over the last few years.Interesting that Ellison is also part of the All Black's coaching staff now, he seems highly rated by Razor.
I guess it begs the question for me does he continue his current position (All Black's tackle & breakdown coach) if he gets the Crusaders head job in 2026 - as most people assume will happen? Hard to imagine that one could manage the workload of both?
You would think he would not stay on with the ABs but take up the HC Crusaders role for long term gain as a HC.
