I get on well with people and I have really good relationships with the other coaches around me. I don't know everything about the games and I'm still learning all the time, so it's important to have an open mind.

Rugby has always been a game for all shapes and sizes. You have the superstars and the fast guys who score the tries, but you also need the workhorses and the people who play all the other roles. Unless they all work together as a team then it's really going to affect the performance. Everyone's got to rely on everyone else.

As a coach, I want players to challenge me, to question me and ask why we're doing a certain thing, so they feel that they're taking ownership.

When you beat England at Twickenham you don't feel the need to make changes to a winning side, but there are areas we think we can improve

Having a social appetite for knowledge and wanting to develop and improve as a coach is important, but I believe in empowering people, particularly the other coaches that work with the team, giving them ownership and responsibility.

For me coaching was all about being involved, and taking the best qualities from the coaches I had as a player and moulding them into my own personality.

The attitude in terms of how players work both on and off the field has a massive impact on us as coaches but also the performance and how the team does as well.
