Six Nations: Why Simon Easterby is touted as the man to lead Wales
Former Welsh Wing Mark Jones played in Llanelli with Easterby, where they also began their coaching career.
“He always laughs on the way to practice or to play and is always a great company,” said Jones, now head coach of Ospreys.
“But once he’s past the paint, he knows when to start opening. He’s very good at setting standards.
“Whenever he comes back to Ireland and leaves Ireland, he’s always ready to play for the club next week. He’s never asked, it’s actually rare. .”
The question remains whether Eastby wants a job in Wales. It is understood that Michael Cheika is very sharp and Franco Smith Desire to include his name among the candidates Although WRU still considers this job to be an attractive job.
“There are a lot of positive attitudes in Wales rugby in the coming years and any coach may want to be a part of it,” Jones said.
“Simon is ambitious and I’m sure the highest job will interest him, but I also think he’s very happy in the Irish environment at the moment.”
On Saturday, Easterby will intend to cause more pain in Welsh rugby. Some people think he will soon be part of the solution.
