Quote: WakeyManDan8 "I think they have probably made this appointment based on the fact that he is French, can speak both English and French, and is a former Catalans player, rather than based on his coaching skills.
Hope I'm wrong, but he's very inexperienced, and this could be a huge risk. I would have thought that Jerome Guisset would have been in with a better shout, based on the fact that he's helped out with the French national side as well as the Dragons, and has had more experience in England.
But good luck Laurent, I always liked watching him play, not a bad stand off actually!'"
He's been the Dragons' assistant coach for the last 6 years I believe, under three different coaches. That's a fair bit of experience there.
