Scott Robertson is a prominent New Zealand rugby coach, known for his successful tenure with the Crusaders in Super Rugby, where he led the team to multiple championships. He has recently advocated for a review of New Zealand's rugby eligibility rules, believing they need to adapt to the evolving global rugby landscape, particularly in response to the growing competition from Japan's Top League. His proposals include extending the sabbatical clause for players based overseas and allowing more flexibility in determining player eligibility for the national team.
