The inside story of how close the All Blacks came to a new coach

The last few months have been a tumultuous period for the All Blacks.   A string of poor results had fans baying for the blood of coach Ian Foster, who somehow managed to survive.  On the surface, New Zealand Rugby appeared to back Foster, but the uncovering of a number of covert meetings suggests that Crusaders coach Scott ‘Razor’ Roberston came far closer to landing the job than previously known.  Today, rugby writer Gregor Paul joins Damien to discuss his series that shows the inner-workings of New Zealand Rugby.
