Tony Johnson: Rugby Commentator on the departure of Leon MacDonald from the All Blacks coaching staff
Early Edition with Ryan Bridge - A podcast by Newstalk ZB
The rugby world is reeling from Leon MacDonald’s abrupt departure from his role as assistant coach of the All Blacks. NZ Rugby announced the news yesterday, Scott Robertson telling the media that their coaching techniques didn’t quite click. Rugby Commentator Tony Johnson told Ryan Bridge that there’s a couple of schools of thought surrounding the departure. One is that the issues that saw MacDonald leaving his role as assistant to Robertson in 2017 arose again, this time proving irreconcilable. Another thought is that there may be too many voices on the coaching panel, which NZR denies. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
