[QUOTE="unrated, post: 923674, member: 45773"] Stick was the backline coach under Coetzee in 2017, was basically a quota coach. Under Erasmus they HAD to retain him in the team, even though the players he is coaching is more experienced both internationally and locally in rugby union than them. So Erasmus gave him the role of positioning specialist, he is responsible for the positioning of players for the first three phases or something lile that, our current backline coach is Swys de Bruin. Many people say he was the mastermind behind the Lions playing that attractive running rugby when he was assistant coach to Johan Ackerman at the Lions. Now he is both theit head coach and the Springbok assistant coach. Officially he is there on a consultancy basis but he has been involved with every match under the Rassie regime. So the upturn in our backline and attack is largely due to him. [/QUOTE]
