The Kiwis have a new coach.\xa0

Rugby League legend Stacey Jones has officially been given the role, having served as assistant coach from 2018 to 2023.\xa0

Former Kiwis player Richie Barnett told Mike Hosking while Wayne Bennett was a well-liked option, it\u2019s time for the Kiwis to have a kiwi leading the charge.\xa0

He said the roster he\u2019s coaching is probably the most impressive one we\u2019ve had, and with Stacey coming in, there\u2019s an opportunity to dominate.\xa0
