[QUOTE="LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan), post: 1050954, member: 70842"] It's a interesting debate. Hardass v Softer approach. Very rarely can you get a coach that can balance both. (It does happen though Baxter seems to balance both Exeter setup) Hardass always tends to end badly unless they get the full backing and can have their own squad and coaches without interference from above (Which didn't happen at Leicester and Edinburgh really he had to answer to both Cohen and Glynn at Tigers and Mallinder at Edinbrugh in terms of coaching and players) But if they get full backing then it can end up quite well. Softer tend to end badly because really you don't tend to have long term success it will start off sweet but you tend to end up as a nearly team. You tend to keep hold of players longer but the question is as a club are you aiming for middle of the road or legacy. Granted this is more for NH rugby rather than SH which has a different mentality. Honestly it happens in Football also. [/QUOTE]
