      Like to know the thinking behind this decision, is it money?

      Crowley's done wonders for Italy - building on the younger players coming thru and turning them into a serious threat against anyone.

        @Bones Yep have known and read all that, this is just showing it getting even more crappier when you losing more top players.

            I do wonder what the KPIs are for an Italy coach. Given where they were, you’d have to think that Crowley had hit most of them.

            Good luck Italy in replacing him with a top coach. Who’d touch that poisoned chalice?

              I wonder if Crowley will continue his journey hame that he was in midst of when he got Italian gig. He's a Kaponga boy, and I quite sure Kaponga would find a job for him coaching the Kaponga team in the Naki 2/3rd div!!

                        Quite the admission from Gatland, though he does finish on a more positive note.

                        Or put another way

                        I wasn't told the full extent of the problems prior to signing
                        I'm aware of them now
                        I've taken steps to move in the right direction
                        I'm very much underplaying our chances in the RWC so if we get beyond the QF stage then everyone will see me as the fantastic coach I think I am

                                  No matter your allegiance, it sucks when you see a great player getting retired early by their body.

                                    Stuart Hogg retiring early is a big loss for Scotland. It’s a shame not to see him make it through to one last World Cup.

                                      Bugger, Scotlands chances of getting out of the pool have decreased by about 50%.

                                      Strange timing, right before a WC.

                                      Arguably Scotlands best ever Fullback.
