Donald Trump says Iran either needs to agree to negotiate or prepare for bombing to begin again.

Iran still hasn't decided whether to take part in the next round of peace talks with the US in Pakistan and says it will only start negotiations when the US is ready to end its port blockade.

The US President has told CNBC he's prepared to relaunch military action if the talks don't proceed.

US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking we rarely see war and peace negotiations play out in public this way, and it’s chaotic.

He says there are mixed messages coming from Trump and some Iranians are suggesting some of his statements are causing delays.

Trump has since extended the ceasefire deal, hours before it was due to expire, and it will remain in place until Iran submits a proposal for discussion.

Coach Dave Rennie is bringing back two former All Blacks staffers as he completes his management group for his first season in charge.

Dr James McGarvey returns to the side as the team doctor, replacing Martin Swan.

Gilbert Enoka also returns to the side as leadership and mental performance coach, replacing Dr Ceri Evans.

Enoka told Mike Hosking that Rennie has been slow and deliberate in putting together his management team, and it’s put them in a good position to roll up their sleeves and get to work.

He says he had a reasonably clear mind in terms of what he wanted, and how that will take shape in the environment will pan out in due course.
