Brian Ashton on the importance of remembering we coach people👇 🗣"As a coach your coaching people who just happen to have a talent for playing rugby. But fundamental your coaching people. You not only take care of the technical and tactical side but also the emotional side"

The way in which Sir Alex Ferguson managed Eric Cantona is probably the greatest display of man-management in the history of sport👇 🗣”I said, I’m going to forget his past… It was about giving him an opportunity to be himself.”

The greatest ever Sir Alex Ferguson story👇 🗣”My mum went into hospital, flowers in the hospital room. I said ‘Mum, who got you the flowers’ she said ‘Rio these flowers came from Fergie’ I never even told him she was in hospital. He was finger on the pulse of all these details.”

Darren has always been giving of his time to the broadcaster. Honest and humble, and always very engaging. They’d of his tenure at the Tahs won’t be the end of his head coaching career and hopefully not the last we see of him coaching in Aus.

Brian Ashton’s coaching philosophy👇 🗣"As a coach you’re coaching people who just happen to have a talent for playing rugby. But fundamental you’re coaching people. You not only take care of the technical and tactical side but also the emotional side"

Stuart Lancaster on mentality👇 🗣"The reason mentality doesn't get as much attention as it deserves is because it's seen as a problem, not a skill. The implication when you talk about it as a skill is it will have components, like any technique, that you have to learn."

Steve Kerr said, "You gain more respect as a leader when you admit you don’t know everything." "When you let somebody else make a decision it makes you more powerful." It takes humility to lead. It means valuing others' insights. Andrew Brownhill

Rassie Erasmus on work rate 👇 🗣"In the coaches box, it's the only thing we do the subs on. Not if you make mistakes but if you stop applying yourself. It's not if you lose a lineout or miss a kick, it's when you stop putting yourself into battles."

This has Tony Brown written all over it. Best attack mind in the game!
