Bearing in mind he was part of the SA 2019 RWC winning coaching set up, it looks like he's going backwards!!!

As far as I remember he always were forwards coach. This is his start as head coach. Maties is the perfect place to start. Dobson started with Ikeys (Uni of Cape Town) unearthing Etsebeth , Huw Jones as players and winning the Varsity Cup. Maties has dominate the Varsity Cup over the years and have probably the richest of player talent in SA. The current Cheetah coach , Hawies Fourie coached Maties a few years ago.

That was my immediate thought. Being scrum coach of a URC / National squad is far more impressive than a varsity coach.
