Time for a new coach
I'm not big on league, but I can tell that the Kiwis have got zero chance of winning anything this year. The outburst from Roy Asotasi points to a complete culture of mistrust and under-performance in the Kiwis.
The fact the board is backing the coach, whose first season was a series of disasters (both on and off the field) instead of listening to the alarm bells show that Rugby League in NZ is in big trouble.
Unlike Australia, New Zealand doesn't have the depth of top players so it can roll in a replacement when a player decides he has had enough. So if the NZRL are wanting end up with the Bartercard Cup XIII in the Kiwis they'd better sort out the mess immediately.

I agree with your post in general, although I disagree about your comment on the depth of talent available to the kiwis. There have been some horrendous problems with injuries (notably to Sonny Bill Williams and Benji Marshall) over the last few years that even the Kangaroos would have struggled with had it happened to them. The fact is that most of the time we are playing with a second XIII, but obviously having a rubbish coach doesn't help.
