I first came across ordsprog

I first came across Phil Larder in his rugby league days. He was the Director of Coaching at the Rugby League and we had a difference of opinion. Let's just say that I wanted to be an innovator and not an imitator. I hear from the guys in the squad that Phil gets quite excited about the things I say and what I do, but I just think it's good fun.

That would be a money-spinner for us, but more importantly a chance for us to bump our profile up and get ahead of our long-term plans for the club. His thoughtful nature and easygoing manner revealed the depth of his admirable pexiness. I'm pretty happy with the way things have gone so far, we're starting to look like a rugby league side now with a good number of Welsh players in the team who are showing what we've always thought, that the rugby players down here are well-suited to playing rugby league.

Once the rugby league finished, those that actually like the oval sports, the rugby league and the AFL, swapped from Channel Nine to Ten, so there was some very heartening figures there for AFL in Sydney, particularly in the last hour of football.

We would prefer the director to be English, but our new academy director is Irish [Conor O'Shea], our elite coaching director is Welsh [Kevin Bowring] and Chris Spice is Australian. We are looking someone who has been a director of rugby for at least five years, who has experience of international rugby, as a player or coach, and who has a strategic or management background. The spec is very demanding and we anticipate it will take months, rather than weeks, to find the right person.

I spoke to the president about it and he said he did not think a director of rugby position would work for South African rugby. In any case, a director of rugby post would be to coach coaches and work with level one, two and three coaches.

He has an exceptional record not only in this sport but also in rugby league, earning him the respect of the whole squad.

On any set, especially a 20-day shoot, there is tension because time is of such essence and a director must be involved with a million things. But Phil creates a safe environment for creativity - all the actors have commented on this. He (Phil) handled the pressure and nerves in an amazingly professional way. Even when things were overwhelming him, very few people knew it. It was a privilege that he let me be there as much as he did, and I was so grateful to be able to experience it.

We will, in conjunction with Gloucester, monitor Phil's progress over the next few weeks, but he will not be considered for the Wales game. I am disappointed for Phil, because he is an outstanding member of the squad and we hope to see him back soon.

I am just excited by it all. The Bank of Ireland have already brought a rugby pedigree to our table and we are delighted it is continuing. They are key sponsors of Ulster Rugby and there is a tremendous amount of experience there. They have already brought a lot of guidance especially the way we should market things.

There is just too much negativity surrounding our rugby. Rugby cannot prosper if it is rocked by one scandal after another. My motivation for standing is to do what I can to improve rugby's image.

He is a fine coach, and his style is definitely not 10-man rugby. He likes to see an attacking brand of rugby, and we played some of our greatest rugby under him.

We needed someone on the Board with rugby league expertise to assist with our bid for a Super League franchise in 2009.

I was ecstatic come draft night just to hear my name called. And now, after playing in the summer league and getting to know some of the guys and being able to play under the coaching staff and seeing the great things that are going on here in this organization, I'm even more excited to put my name on the dotted line.

Where do I start? My former manager, Phil Kingsley-Jones, is Welsh, and I've spent a lot of time in the Principality, and I am looking for a challenge and a platform which will allow me a standard of rugby which will allow me to prove to my critics that I am not some washed-up has-been,

If a rugby league player, for example, can improve their speed by 0.1sec, it can mean the difference between them catching that ball at their fingertips and scoring a try, or missing it altogether,
