The Warriors are prepared to let Luke Metcalf negotiate with other clubs.

A club statement says they will allow last year's first choice halfback to look for a new home, after falling down the pecking order following injuries over the last 12 months.

It comes with Tanah Boyd poised to re-sign until 2029.

Former Kiwis player Richie Barnett says it's a stunning turn of events.

"Obviously, we've seen through the year that he doesn't like playing six and Tanah Boyd's playing so well, Chanel's playing so well at six - Tanah Boyd's just amazing at seven, so it's incredible how the tide has turned."

New research shows some surveys might not be as accurate as we all think.

Researchers asked Kiwis if they believed the Canadian Government was secretly training genetically enhanced raccoons for warfare, with 7.2 percent of respondents - or 300,000 people - saying they believed it.

University of Otago psychology expert on Dr John Kerr says it's extremely unlikely all these respondents believed this, and the question was designed to be outlandish to weed out the trolls.

"It helped us to get an idea of the extent of what we'd call 'insincere responders' - or trolls, who are skewing the results on this kind of research."

Sir Graham Henry is keen to offer his perspective to the All Blacks selection roundtable.

The 2011 World Cup-winning coach will join the panel as an independent selector, alongside head coach Dave Rennie and assistant Neil Barnes.

Sir Graham says everyone has an opinion on what's right and wrong in rugby.

"I think that sure, when people are watching my team win when I was a coach, they felt probably the same way. So I guess it's part of the deal."

There's assurance scoping work on a second Auckland Harbour crossing is still under way, with plans expected mid-year.

Two Transport Agency reports have detailed defects in the 67 year-old bridge, and warn it's at risk of failure.

It says without long-term strengthening work, month-long lane closures, truck limits, and more wind-related restrictions are on the cards.

Chris Bishop says he won't be the Transport Minister who produces a pie-in-the sky idea that turns to custard.

He says they're taking an evidence led approach, engaging with the market, doing geotechnical assessments and extensive studies.
