    A potential crisis looms in All Blacks rugby

    A potential crisis looms in All Blacks rugby


    Scott Robertson's tenure as New Zealand coach looks under threat.

    That comes after adverse feedback was delivered via the end-of-year reviews with player-driven frustrations over the leadership and culture.

    Robertson is two years into a four-year deal - the team has secured 20 wins from 27 matches, a 74 percent success rate, under his stewardship.

    NZR have been approached for comment.

    The future of the entire All Blacks staff set-up and fill-in captain Ardie Savea's upcoming playing prospects also appear in limbo.
