AS THE search continues for a permanent Head and Forwards Coach, Alex Codling is to fill the latter post (following the weekend departure of Andi Kyriacou) on a temporary basis.

In an update, Munster confirmed: “Codling, 51, will work with Munster on an interim basis as the recruitment process for a permanent appointment continues.

“He will undertake a dual role, also fulfilling his responsibilities with the Ireland Women’s team ahead of the 2025 Women’s Six Nations.”

Prior to his current role with Ireland, he was Head Coach of Premiership club Newcastle Falcons and he has also coached with the senior England men’s team, Harlequins and Oyonnax.
