Not being the type to argue much I reluctantly must disagree with you. Matt Williams is an excellent coach and proved as much with Leinster. The Scots were far...

Myles, The fact that Gaffney is mild-mannered and wouldn't tend to upset people is one of the reasons I'd see him as the manager more than the backs coach. The...
