@SouthernMann anyone who can coach attack past three phases and a modern defensive system would be nice

And those two components are the roles of Lachlan McCaffrey as the defensive coach and Kane Jury as the attacking coach.
-
@SouthernMann perhaps they also need to go then
-
Lachlan McCaffrey will be taking his talents to the Waratahs next year. From a Highlanders perspective Ma'u, Holland, Haig, Millar, Umaga-Jensen and Nareki are the only first stringers. Most of those guys have been good. Just some average errors by some of the lads. Which have let us down over the last few weeks

Can not wait for Donnelly to be gone.
Just a question of who else. What money on Cory Brown getting the job back.
I was talking to someone about this yesterday. My money is on it being Cory Brown. He wouldn’t leave a pretty wicked in Japan to just come back to pick up an assistant coach wage(you wouldn’t think). The NPC role will be a nice top up for him and also be more hands on with the players on a regular basis.
Hope that’s how it plays out anyway.

It needs to be someone who sits happily in Jamie Jo's pocket. I reckon the leading candidates are Brown, Jury or Lesie. Sadly JL's time has probably past him by now.

@KiwiMurph probably another season under his belt. Last NPC season he was out injured and only really started Super Rugby last season. Only 22. Let him get a seasons worth of strength, fitness, and confidence in him. But definitely include him in the ABs XV for the Munster games
