Even when I never missed a game back in the early 2000s when this bloke started I have no idea who he is.

2018 minus 17 equals 2001. That's when he started his job.

I thought you were referring to his rugby playing career not his time as a member of NZR.

This is shaping up to be the ferns most boring ever thread. Lets go and talk Walking Dead instead
-
Yes, I was referring to the fact that Sorenson was a former Wellington halfback in the late 1980s.
Sorenson is essentially the 2IC at NZR which implies that Teflon Tew isn't going anywhere in a hurry. Tew himself bided his time under Moller before being given the top job.

@mn5 said in Neil Sorensen leaving NZR:
Who?
I expect the reason Sorenson is resigning is MN5 has no idea who he is.
(Actually not sure if the last three words of that sentence are necessary ... )

Unkind (but fucking funny) and I need a laugh watching the Craps.

He'll be thrilled someone is actually taking an interest in this shit thread though
-
Best halfback to not make the all blacks?
Discuss .....Neil Sorensen is it in my 30 odd years of watching.
Well done on 17 years service. It's been a pretty successful 17 years he's played a part in. Even if, as MN5 infers (I think), it's below the headlines.

@rapido said in Neil Sorensen leaving NZR:

Discuss .....He would be up there, and it was mentioned at the time. I would include Kevin Putt in the conversation over that time period.
-
Oh yeah, forgot about Putt.
Second best then .....Dean Kenny was another fine halfback of Sorensen's era, but he got on an AB tour in 86 and played some tour matches.
-
Putt did play for the Boks though
-
How about Brett Iti?
-
@booboo said in Neil Sorensen leaving NZR:

After he was spurned by Mains.
Khan Fotuali'i was talked up by some.
-
Yeah Iti and Fotuali over Sorenson. Iti probably left a bit soon though.
-
Iti came back with plenty of years still to play. I recall reading that in around 95.What happened to him? Injuries?

I think injury basically finished his Bradford contract.
