Tony Brown: Springboks Assistant Coach on the All Blacks coaching saga, Scott Robertson's departure
Description
Tony Brown has admitted to frustrations around the vacant All Blacks coaching role.
The former first-five has confirmed he intends to honour his contract as an assistant with South Africa, rather than make himself available for inclusion in any New Zealand group.
Brown was a part of Jamie Joseph's pitch for the job in 2023, which lost out to Scott Robertson.
Brown revealed to Mike Hosking that Robertson sounded him out about joining the All Blacks a couple of months ago.
But he says his commitment to South Africa was four years and he’s always wanted to honour that.
“I’m just so frustrated that no one talked to me two years ago.”
