New Zealand Rugby chair Dame Patsy Reddy has outlined why she believes an independent model for the sport's governance is a must.

NZR has released a proposal to change the governance structure and could call a Special General Meeting to vote on it.

Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explains further.
