See that all comes back to them being better coaches.. can he really get coaches to improve hugely in a two week period?dropkick wrote:goreyguy wrote:the solution is relatively easy no?Dave Cahill wrote:

the coaches need to be better at their jobs or leinster can hire better coaches.
What other solutions can he offer?
Get better players, Leinster are limited in that ability apart from the coaches improving players, again that largely comes down to having better coaches working in leinster.
Change tactics, again down to coaches ability to coach.
What else?
He can break down their play this past season and tell them where they were going wrong and why they found it so difficult to score tries at times.
He can advise them to change their attacking structure and implement a NZ one, and clarify the benefits of doing that. A 2-4-2 like Connacht or similar.
He can let them know that their skills need a big improvement and advise them to change the way they train.
Tell them that they should be seeking space rather than contact.
And many other things.
Can these coaches really implement a new attacking structure they are unfamiliar with.
Won't mid preseason be a bit late to suddenly decide to change your attacking structure?
Are these coaches not capable of breaking down where they were going wrong last season in attack? if so thats a huge worry.
If they need to be told basics like space = good, contact = bad.. then leinster are in bad shape going forward.
I'm not saying i'm not a fan of this move, I just don't think its enough, leinster need more proven experienced coaches working with the team and academy. Hopefully whatever Henry recommends the leadership of the province follows through on, even if its costly or unpopular.
