The latest sports news from The42.ie in 60 seconds
BERNARD JACKMAN WEIGHED in on Munster ’s future on Monday’s episode of Rugby Weekly Extra, the podcast for subscribers to The 42.
“Felix Jones is out, apparently. I think they’re pretty clear that they want Prendergast to head up the rugby program,” Jackman said. “The Munster reaction on Saturday night will make people feel more comfortable. But it was never in doubt that Mike had the players backing. My thinking is don’t overload him now. They said when they signed Rassie that their long-term solution was to sign a Director of Rugby, and that’s why they went for him.
Jackman added: “It looks like the IRFU are pretty comfortable with the situation we have in Ulster, Connacht and Leinster where you have a Guy Easterby, a Bryn Cunningham or a Tim Allnutt kind of doing that recruitment and retention piece, and allowing the coaches not have that conflict with players.”
