This is why the Allblacks "aura" is gone. Too happy clappy, too nice. The media has been complicit in their downfall. Its harder to lose your spot in the team than it is to get in to it.
He is still better than his supposed replacements.
chill out Stevie
Have to agree with this to ne fair
Sir JK again, not making sense. Whitelock is done and has achieved everything. Maybe coaching assistant would work for him.
100%/ He'd only return to tarnish his great legacy.
If Sam Whitelock comes back for the All Blacks, he'll play minimal games and will be off the bench. This experience and tactics in the lineout will be nothing but pure guidance for the younger locks that are coming through.
He won't make it to the 2027 RWC, and I only believe he'll be around for a year, maybe two at the best.
Exactly how I see his return. It's only to bleed his experience into the next lot and then phase out slowly.
JK the most delusional rugby commentator😂 or maybe the least cerebral.. Not sure🤔
Razor in panic mode before hes even coached 1 game !!
When’s he ever panicked grow up he’s not the last coach
They are past their due by date ya dummies let's start building now for the future,whitelock is by no way going to the 2027 rwc way too old by then,JK you've lost it bigtime
Sam Whitelock is a legend!!
Razor and Sam Whitelock working together at the all blacks one tenure to late .
The Boks won the last world cup using overseas-based players. With 600-plus Kiwis playing in other parts of the world, can NZ win another WC without dipping into that talent pool?
Has there been a review by the NZR to warrant such a move? What are the problems with NZR that requires such a change?????
Sam Whitelock is one of greats BUT he is 35 and if you noticed that over the last 2 seasons his ability to get around the field at test level was struggling since the fact is that he has been there since 2010!!!! Would love to see Whitelock as a technical advisor but as a player NO!!!!
Quick question. Been watching the URC, English premiership and Super Rugby. South Africa and England have had good attendance eg Saracens v Harlequins 62k and Bulls v Stormers 50k. On average well above 20k per game. Super Rugby observationally looking a bit empty. Any reasons? Any impact on the business.
Never thought the ABs would be this desperate, while you at it bring back Carter and McCaw😂
I won't be surprised if Wilson and Muliaina decide to do it themselves😂
Yes calling on experience to guide the youngsters is desperate.... clueless
Maybe razor is just gonna use whitelocks experience to guide the young guys,can't see a problem with that
You can never have enough of the finest experienced players in NZ and especially for the All Blacks, Whitelock and how he will play it out. No good guessing lets just see what the Man will say. For me yes please you are needed as a guidance to all younger players.
We worry so much about super rugby and the elite level of rugby ,if we don't pay more attention to grass roots and our provincial competition,our standard of rugby is going to drop and we'll be left wondering where it all went wrong. There was more interest in rugby when the clubs and provinces were strong. We had something to support. For the smaller towns we could watch our club players playing for our provincial team and even the AB's, but now we don't get that. Provincial rugby is more like a good club game and who watches club rugby much anymore. Super rugby was great to start with, but now it's not really affordable to take the family to games. We're killing the game here in NZ. I believe that's why we now have to look at overseas players to survive.
Yep agree we need to evolve not get stuck into our old ways its not working
I think we need to build for the next world Cup like Ireland did let him retire
I agree - time to rebuild and give those their time just like Whitelock was given his time in 2010!

How old is he first?
Is he not derailing the the development of younger players who who will be there in the next 12 years. My advice to him, I know it won't be received or taken...he has served his country with great distinction. Leave it there brother.
Is he looking to bring him back as a player or coach? As a lineout coach would be fantastic
Let’s bring McCaw and Carter back too…
😅😅😅😅
goldie and marshie...best rugby pundits...proper rugga boys....dominated SA in their time...LEGENDS!!!!
Yeah but weren't able to win a world cup tho unfortunately
WE got plenty of talent within our shores - stay with the programme Robertson, you are suppose to be a champion coach!
Lock, Stock and 2 smoking Barrets
Jeff got a lot of stick last year for his bizarre AB selections, but no one had paid him credit for predicting the Whitelock one, where he’d be a bench player for the ABs six months before it happened.
If Sam comes back Razor won’t want him to play.
Sam will be an excellent trainer for the up and coming losses and locks that NZR has on tap.
Him and the likes of Scotty Barrett added to the training status of an already formidable coaching team for the All Blacks is a lot to contend with leading upto and into the next World Cup!
Remember all the Locks and flankers that the All Blacks had on the bench at the last World Cup were still abit inexperienced but still are still learning their trade week in week out right now in Super Rugby Pacific.
Papalii, Finau, Jacobsen, leawillie and the return of Brad Shields will welcome the statement of being coached by Whitelock.
you need the old guys to usher in the new
Ye I agree.
And there is still a heap of talent in the NPC and Super Rugby that still have not hit their best Rugby yet!
Yeah I agree 👍 people acting like Sam's the starting lock who we all will rely on,no its not,razor clever man
Sam Whitlock experience is important to the team.
Sam should be a player/ coach.He is expert on line outs.
Sam Darry is 6ft 9 ins and he is the tallest lock in NZ.
Darry is very good player too.I really like the look of Josh Lord he is over 2metres tall.
These guys are the twin towers of NZ rugby.
Sam Whitlock can help with development of these young guys.
Scott Barrett is definitely our number one Lock.We need guys that good in the line out.
Who is our best line out jumper in NZ?????
On the Blues' website Darry is listed at 2.03m, which would make him 6ft 6-1/2, about Andy Haden's size. You'd think that would be accurate but who knows?
@@WaferBrik He is 6ft 8 ins.
@@markrutherford6010 Yet another height for the guy. Where did that one come from?
@@WaferBrik Wikipedia
@@WaferBrik 2.03m is 6ft 8
Please come back Sammy!!
Sam Whitelock retired from All Black Rugby, as he said, I truly wanted to go to France, and be with his brother , Luke, Sam has a Farm in South Hawkes Bay, he has been that true warrior, and supreme player, for NZ Rugby, but, he has given, and , just , leave him alone, now, NZ Rugby has so many , up and coming Rugby Players, whom want to achieve, at the , highest level, (just like Sam Whitelock back in the day)
Yeah I agree but his experienced presence can be used to just nurture the young locks around that's all I reckon not a starting option to fully rely on
660 overseas - FFS!!!!!
What would be the point? As a contender for RWC 2027 at the age (then) of 39? Senseless. As a mentor? Sure. He certainly could make invaluable contributions. Otherwise I suggest has-beens should rather be left to relax and enjoy their grand children. Cheers from Safferland chaps!
Desperate measures, but agree all the SRP the up and coming locks are 💩 house
Comon breakdown stop speculating this is absolute click bait rubbish.
Big mistake! We us South Africans made this mistake over and over again…build and grow new talent!!!
Disagree,razors going to grow new talent using Sam as a mentor for them not as a totally reliant starting player first choice lock no its not,an experienced head to have around the up and comers that's all,your jumping to conclusions
Desperate Times ..😅
Sam whitlock.does he know he is finished. He couldn't do it against french and sa..move on old man ? Don,t stay with this sorry bunch of player,s😂😂😂😂😂
I remember when victor matfield came out of retirement and tarnished his legacy by playing for too long and not going out on top. Hmmmmm….
pet cemetery part2!
These same guys if its another team . Would say those teams dont have players ....hypocrisy at its best ...😅
So much for "depth"
Yawn… Razor starting to look desperate
His to old…. Move on….
Too old for wat?they never said he's going to be starting every game or even a starting choice,maybe they're just using Sam's experience to build the young ones confidence
Sam Whitelock doesn’t and shouldn’t have to play another game for the AB’s. If he wants to come in a teach the art of reading lineouts then great, but why is jk suggesting bring him on in the last quarter FOUR years from now. Wtf this show is awful
This is why the all blacks arent as good as they use too be!!! Its time for the new gen instead of old foxes who are well passed there prime
Your perspective maybe wrong wat if razor is just using Sam's experience to usher in the young ones?
This show is just dreadful. Only Mills has some credibility, the others are just 🤡🚮... it's become a clown show.
A great coach will transform the players in NZ with little experience into great All Blacks. Razor needs to focus on the players in Super Rugby bc they're our future All Blacks otherwise whats the point of playing in NZ.
I agree - if Robertson is such a champion coach then surely he has the ability to coach what he has in NZ!!!! Sounds like Robertson's tenure at the Crusaders was more about the players he had than his coaching with this type of carry on!
Nobody said Sam's going to be a first choice option starting every game razors gonna use Sam's experience to nuture the young locks I don't see anything wrong with that
@@ManaBlack208 No it just hinders development keeping a great player whose expiry date is past date from a next player who is next on the rank his time!
Perhaps they should look at Whitelock as a technical advisor!
@thefobbie0034 Well that's pretty much wat he's gonna be,he won't be a first option to start games just having his experience around is nothing but a good thing
@@ManaBlack208 For sure but not as a player!
When Hurricanes are top of table with minimal talent and Crusaders in the basement, you know ABs will be terrible this year🤣
Kiwi demise is rapid..bunch of deadwood player,s now.😂😂😂😂😂
