Well I think that is great news. Mitch has plenty to offer ad it is nice to see him committing to spending time in SA. Best of luck to him in whatever role he finds for himself. I hope he can add some value and brains to rugby in our country.

“Mitch to remain in SA”.

England, Australia and NZ,
heave a huge sigh of relief.

SA needs someone of this man’s cailbre. Mallet and Mitchell would be the dream ticket.

@gunther-7: The old tea lady at my previous work once told me with great pride of the naughty pine ceilings she had put in her Mitchel's Plain home. Now I'm thinking she has a Bulls coach up there somewhere.

@xtremebull-1: I agree, we need someone to kick a few butts at the Bulls, en jaag sommer daai pretender Pienaar weg want hy kan nie eers o/13 afrig nie.

Mitch, like Mallet is his own worst enemy.

Great as a coach but a terrible man manager.

And at this level that will restrict you every time.

i wouldn’t have him anywhere near the WP setup.

I agree with HG. He should go to the Sharks.

We can give him Pine Time Pienaars job for a start.

@grant10-5: Is the real grant10 back? I've seen how much guys like Mitchell get paid to be guest-speaker at conferences. They don't need to coach

HM needs someone to challenge his own comfort zones….he is surrounded by too many ‘ yes men ‘….

If he could have a Mallet / Mitchell type just in some advisory capacity, would be a great help….Rassie seems very absent lately…..not sure what role Rassie playing in the set up, if any at all…

Grant10 – u not wrong there IMO – tho I think he and meyers approach might be at polar ends of the spectrum – meyer would def be better in motivating the players but it would be good if he took onboard input from Mitchell .

Mitchell can come join his mate Plum at the Sharks and impart some knowledge there…

I am sure he will do this in between his new media responsibilities.

AC Coetsee will never ever be able to cope with Mitchell… Plum will.

Would love this guy in the Stormers or Bok set up….so much knowledge to impart.

Been brilliant listening to him and Mallet in the Supersport Studio…..
