Damian Penaud voted Autumn Nations Series player of the season

Brown turned down both Fozzie and Razor's invitation and remained loyal to Joseph.

Fast forward to 2023 Razor is announced as the coaching successor to Fozzie. In the gap between Razor's appointment and the naming of the coaching team, journalist Paul Cully called Tony Brown and asked him if he had been approached, he answered no and that he was available and looking for a job as Joseph had already committed to returning to NZ.

Rassie pounced and the rest is history.

Should be a cracker.!

Yes, that really highlights your inner calm, a real ring of serenity to it…

Don’t you think?

I answered why the name was changed, multiple times.

You seem truly angered they didn't consult you personally before changing the name. What an injustice.

Incidentally, they aren't under the auspices of the British Lions. You've even acknowledged that by referencing the name change. You continue to contradict yourself. Lost in the rage.

Can you even remember what you were raging about?

Still no answer on why the name had to be changed then?

Or why a country full of touchy souls that must stand alone, are yet so desperate to stay under the auspices of the British Lions?

The only Australian Super Franchises that have been successful are the ones that have had Australian coaches.

I wonder how many of the moaners would have complained if NZR hadn't done the same as most other countries and locked in their coach before the World Cup.

Agreed that we need to be patient while Razor learns the ropes.
