[QUOTE="User1245, post: 465398, member: 40986"] Well I everybody has said it already. Sharks hearts were just not in this game. Not to cheapen the Lions victory though, they played a hell of a game. Their intensity was something else! I actually started hoping the Lions would take it during the game, they were just so hungry for this and Mitchell deserves this. He is an excellent coach. On that note... The people who are saying he should be in the running for Bok coach are delusional. Not saying he's not fit to coach the Boks, but do they honestly think he even wants the job? He is FULLY committed to the Lions at the moment and as just started to reap the benefits of 2 years of hardwork. He will not take the job even if he was offered it. Guaranteed. Plus I don't think he buys the hype he is being given at the moment, he been around for too long to fall for that. Not that SARU would hire a foreign coach, they're still to proud and arrogant to let any type of outside help in. Remember how ****** off they got with the whole Eddie Jones saga. God forbid an outsider ruining our potent Bok backline! Anyway, Plum needs to sort out our backline out. Our weakness in the centres has been our Achilles heel ever since Trevor Halstead and Andre Snyman left! The way your centres play determines how your backline functions, and it seems like the coaches are clueless on what they want. We also need to decide in the upcoming S15 season where Lambie is gonna fit into our plans, and what Freddie is bringing to us long term. Is he there to mentor, or to fill in a preserved gap we have at flyhalf? Plum is not winning many fans by displacing Lambie from flyhalf, which where most of SA are waiting for him to get an extended run. Oh and get us some proper locks! [/QUOTE]
