David Moffett: Former New Zealand Rugby CEO on the sacking of Scott Robertson as All Blacks coach

from Holiday Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB

Questions continue to swirl over Scott Robertson’s departure as All Blacks coach. He's left halfway through his four-year deal after player frustration simmered and boiled over in a scathing internal review late last year. NZ Rugby Chair David Kirk denies a player revolt forced Robertson out. But former Chief Executive David Moffett told Andrew Dickens the organisation's a bit of a mess. He says you're going to get bigger problems if players get to determine who their boss is. Moffett says told Dickens he’s given up trying to understand the organisation’s strategy or purpose. He says they currently don't have a chief executive, a coach, and are missing some senior leaders. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
