    Former New Zealand Rugby high performance manager Don Tricker has been called in to oversee the review into the 2025 All Blacks season

    Former New Zealand Rugby high performance manager Don Tricker has been called in to oversee the review into the 2025 All Blacks season


    The New Zealand Herald reports Tricker will offer independent oversight into the review, which will be led by his NZR successor Mike Anthony and general manager of professional rugby Chris Lendrum.

    The former Black Sox softballer and coach was unable to commit to leading the review itself due to his commitments with Major League Baseball's San Diego Padres .

    Previous All Blacks coaches who worked with Tricker say his reviews often led to key improvements being made.
