Glen Jackson “Start again from Three”: will be the coach of Fijian Drua
The former New Zealand player, who in his career wore the shirts of Chiefs in the Southern Hemisphere and Saracens in the Northern Hemisphere (between 1999 and 2010), and then became an international referee, with 32 direct international tests (2012 -2019), was appointed as the new head coach of Fijian Drua, the island Super Rugby franchise.
First on the pitch, in two different versions, and then on the bench: the bond between Jackson and rugby does not fade, on the contrary. “I’m thrilled – said Jackson -. If I think about the future I see myself working with quality players and elements to work on to find the leaders of this group. The Fijian Drua have an impact on people’s lives, as rugby is the national sport, so we will have to do our best in Super Rugby Pacific. The goal is to grow and become a reference for the next generation of rugby players.”
