RAZOR'S Exit Explained: Is BORTHWICK Now Under Pressure?

Andy Rowe is joined by All Blacks legend Justin Marshall and
Australian great Jeremy Paul for a candid chat on two big coaching
storylines. First, the Razor situation, where Marshy asks where the
buck stops and why so much has been pinned on Scott Robertson, when
performance and responsibility also sit with players and the wider
coaching group. Then we pivot to England. After a rough Six Nations
run, JP doesn’t hold back, questioning whether Steve Borthwick is
the right man and suggesting the pressure could escalate if results
don’t turn quickly. We also get into: • Brumbies’ historic win in
Christchurch and why the Crusaders looked drained • Why the South
Africa tour is the toughest challenge in rugby • Six Nations chaos
and why France look a level above • The return of “proper winger
play” (Tungitau, Jorgensen) • Angus Crichton’s Wallabies talk and
what it could mean in 2026 Partnership / Sponsorship enquiries:
