โThe retention of the coaching staff was a big thing for me personally and for the club, it gives us the stability and consistency in what weโre delivering here to the players.
My beliefs in the way we like to play as a team are backed up by the quality and ambition of Greg Browns conditioning programme.
Martin Gleeson and Willie Poching are two outstanding coaches, both with different levels of experience, that balance out our strengths and weaknesses as a coaching team.โ
With Watson also signing a new deal, CEO Ian Blease is pleased to see the coaching staff stay with the club on a long term basis;
โHaving this kind of stability off the field is crucial to what we are trying to achieve as a club. We have an excellent coaching setup here and Iโm really happy to see that they are all committed to the Red Devils.โ
