[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 818852, member: 39190"] Well, one thing is clear, Coetzee is not the coach to develop our game. Not that we didn't know that though. You can look at the teams he has been involved with. Not that he hasn't achieved anything but its not pretty. So the options are keep Coetzee and accept his MO or drop Coetzee but for whom though? White is available (probably?) but TBH I'd rather Coetzee actually. Mallett isn't stupid enought o get back on that horse while Ackermann has made it clear he wants to win the SR ***le with the Lions first. Seemingly the Bok coaching gig is off limits to foreigners and I doubt many (any?) of them would want the job in any case. If anything this win and the way we went about it is exactly what notSA rugby needed. Sooooo, Coetzee it is. He has to find the right pieces for what he wants to do though and I expect it will be a lot harder for him to do so than it was for White. Not least because of the ever increasing political pressure and the quota system. And I'm not just speaking on the Bokke here but on the SR sides, CC, Junior Bokke and Varsity Cup sides which feed into the test side. On top of that more and more of our best go overseas and then the cherry is that our SR sides are looking to develop their game at SR level. That creates a mismatch between what our players do and what sort of players we want in our test side and SR sides. Not ideal. I think we will continue to see ourselves fall further behind till we make the necessary adjustments at one end or the other. [/QUOTE]
