In the nicest possible way Casual I think you are wrong. From the comments to date I would expect him to have a full input into what he expects pre season to look like with a view to preparing the squad for the style of play he wants the saints to play. For instance it’s no good him wanting a rapid all court running game and the current coaching staff to labour on bulking up pre season. My friends in Wellington have suggested a lot less kicking will be the order of the day and playing the game at pace.
Happy to be proved wrong - It's what the forum should be about !
I have not listened / read all the comments and I am certainly no expert ..
I'm interested in how much influence he can have over the next 6 months - will there be opportunities for him to come over to see / meet the players in action or will it be all done remotely ? With regard to the game plan - does he have a preferred game plan and then built a team around it or develop a game plan to suit the players the club has or can recruit before next season. Take Dan Bigger - excellent player but not one to base a 'Cains running game around.
