It
is clear we are not progressing sufficiently under the ELVs and being determined
to take measures to turn around our present performance and to achieve the results
expected and required from our squad, the Pirates have recruited Chris Stirling
to advise and assist our coaching team.
Chris is currently
the Wellington B Coach and is highly regarded by the NZRFU and his peers in New
Zealand who have provided excellent references.
He will
join us when his season ends in two weeks and be with us until Xmas.The southern
hemisphere has grasped the challenge of the ELVs with great success and Wellington
B are currently unbeaten in the Air New Zealand B Cup as of Saturday last.
