Re: Munster 2016-2017
well if Foley goes they can ease him in as set piece forwards (assistant) or something like that, Erasmus would presumably cover a lot of the forwards normallyleinsterforever wrote:He might be a better fit than Foley as line-out coachsimonokeeffe wrote:Munster board would love to have him/a liging/not just have Fla as token local if Foley walks (under pressure)Dave Cahill wrote:Not much point floating behind Foleys back.

Re: Munster 2016-2017
Has O'Connell ever done any coaching, has he done his qualifications?
Or is he actually taking up a role designed to attract external investment into the academy.

His doc might be the deciding factor rather than his lawyer. PS. Why are you bragging about your phone?Dave Cahill wrote:He has another year on his contract iirc?

He seems to do more in the loose than Roux, and he's got more Super Rugby appearances than Roux had. I wonder how he compares as a pusher in the scrum?offshorerules wrote:Saw a highlight reel. Pretty underwhelming reminds me of Roux

All in all, I think this looks like a shrewd signing
