The Break down between the coaching staff and the Team management on the field
In the end there does not appear the necessary co-ordination between the off-gorld management seems to be blamed for inconsistent performances, In the survey about the issue while the off-field management had about 51% support as against 37% support for the captancy seems clear. The panel appears to t hink that Scott Barrett - as the best lock in New Zealand suffers from having too many on-field decisions to eb made by the captain that detract from his performance.
Should the All Blacks select foreign based players to play for the All-Blacks
The on-line survey results were significent -
- 26% of the suvey said NO;
- 38% of the survey said YES but confined to proven All Black players; and
- 34% of the survey said YES
From the above there seems to be pulic pressure to the present scenario where only New Zealand players playing locally qualifies for All Black selection.
