[QUOTE="Peat, post: 700191, member: 42330"] I bow to no man in my admiration of Baxter - but as you say, it's unknown whether his methods would work at that higher level; its unknown whether they'd even work with a better bunch of club players. Moreover, he has relatively little experience of coaching and winning on those big days, when the pressure is on. Possible forwards coach? Sure. Possible head coach? That's some gamble. And more over, I can't see him getting anywhere near the level of exposure to big games that he needs anytime soon. Which is a shame, as I want him in contention for the next time the England job comes vacant, and you never know... Left-field shout - McCall, maybe, if Sarries kill everything in sight leading up the 2016-17 season. [/QUOTE]
