I'm seeing rumours that Eddie has gone completely bonkers and has John Mitchell lined up as an England assistant.
I look forward to that entertainment and addition to England's journey.Eddie could end up being a better plant than Robbie was

That highlights all the fears I have.

so MItchell is now English...IIRC his teams were never that great defensively, always decent attacking.

So chop a few office and grass roots staff for good ol' Mitch?
"If they believe John Mitchell is a better defence coach than me then good luck to them," Sean Edwards soon to be ex Wales defence coach. Touche!

Mitchell seems to give off the vibe (to most NZ fans of a certain age) that he's faking it.
What are the Bulls like on defence?
I've been to https://sanzarrugby.com/superrugby/competition-stats/ but they are a pretty hopelessly incomprehensive set of stats.The most relevant set of stats I could get from there to assess team defence is Team Tackle % won. Where Bulls are 14th out of 15 in the comp.
There's not even a category in that hopeless site for tries conceded!

Is that Max Headroom?
-
@bovidae possibly not, but if your side's defence is a bit shit, the head coach would (should) probably take a more active role.
not sure if this is any better
