Who'd be a coach?

Paul Turner told the Argus the other day he couldn't see any of the Welsh regional coaches wanting to apply for the Wales job.
Paul should know; he's in the toughest job in Welsh rugby, trying to get a quart out of the pint pot that is the Newport Gwent Dragons budget. The trouble is that Welsh rugby is an environment where coach and player development isn't succeeding. Part of the problem is the lack of professional leadership in the game. Coaches like Paul Turner find themselves filling a gap where professional managers should be, and all of it under relentless pressure from media, fans and the board. The abrupt but deserved defenestration of Gareth Jenkins without any attempt to work out what went wrong was a reminder for Welsh coaches of what a harsh environment the principality can be. In the absence of sensible structures that enable clear accountability no-one wins; not the players, the coaches or the fans.
Whenever things go wrong it's easy to blame the critics for pointing out what goes wrong. Better if some openness and frankness enabled the whole rugby community to genuinely engage with the past and work towards a better future.
