    Exactamundo!!

    Now we need a backs coach, hopefully Meehan or Louden. I liked what they wrote yesterday, that Meehans backs are renowned for playing attractive attacking running rugby. Exactly what we need!!

    I thought with the signing of John Mulvihill - if true, (I hate to comment on speculation). that he would handle the backs - so no more signings.

    I just hope that all the Coaches we now have are all able to "sing from the same hymn sheet"

    Looks like your right

    Mulvihill to be Western Force head coach

    Former Western Force assistant foundation coach John Mulvihill is set to rejoin the Super Rugby club as head coach.

    The move comes just days after Michael Foley joined the Force as director of coaching from the NSW Waratahs for three years.

    Mulvihill, currently coaching with Japanese club Mitsubishi Dynaboars, had originally applied for the top position.

    He will also take responsibility for the backs a position he held previously at the Force under John Mitchell.

    Under him, the Force scored more tries than at any other time in its seven year history.

    He has a long association with Foley going back to their playing days.
