Giant former England international Matt Banahan has been confirmed as the new attack coach of Scotland Women by the SRU.

Head Coach, Bryan Easson, announced the capture of the former Bath and Gloucester winger, as he named an extended training squad ahead of the new global competition, WXV, which gets underway in October.

The hulking 6’7 back, who weighed in excess of 125kg at his heaviest, earned 16 caps and four tries for England between 2009 and 2011.

“I’ve been seeing the growth of the women’s game and from my experience of playing for so many years, along with my coaching experience, I thought there was no better place to pursue my coaching career.

“I’ve coached in academy programmes and with other teams and I thought this was the perfect progression to pass on knowledge from where my passion stems from.

Easson added: “We got to a really good place last season with Chris [Laidlaw] and I’m really pleased with the way that he developed our attacking game. Chris has since made the decision to give his full focus to his role as Performance Development Coach in the pathway system and we wish him all the best.

“We wanted to bring in someone in with that same kind of ilk, who has recently been involved in the game from a playing perspective and has the energy and rugby knowledge to take the players to the next level.

Scottish Rugby’s Technical and Operations Director, Stevie Gemmell, said: “It’s fantastic to appoint a recent former international player who has cut his teeth in coaching through the academy system.

“This appointment demonstrates the attraction in being involved in our women’s programme and we look forward to seeing how Matt can progress our attacking game on the back of some promising performances during the 2023 TikTok Women’s Six Nations championship.”

The 32-player squad, comprising 16 forwards and 16 backs, will convene in camp today for a six-week block of training sessions, culminating in a warm-up fixture against Spain at Hive Stadium on Saturday, 30 September.

Springboks coach on why they want Ireland game to be hard

It all started with a seemingly golden opportunity – a high-yield Bitcoin investment. I invested in a cryptocurrency startup that looked promising, but I never imagined it would turn into a nightmare. The platform — slick, well-marketed, and with testimonials from seemingly legitimate investors — promised me a 200% return in two weeks. I invested over 7 Bitcoins, worth nearly $500,000 at the time.  The platform’s customer support became elusive, and eventually the platform disappeared. No access, no updates, no sign of the team – just silence, and my heart sank. I had been scammed. I wasn’t alone. across the country and even internationally, victims of the same scam were reporting similar experiences. Fake trading dashboards, forged gains, withdrawal delays, and ultimately, total disappearance. It was a textbook crypto scam—decentralized, anonymous, and nearly impossible to trace, It was a classic crypto scam – decentralized, anonymous, and virtually untraceable, until I discovered Dexdert Net Pro Recovery. Unlike typical recovery agencies that rely on outdated tracing methods or cold legal tactics, Dexdert Net Pro combines advanced blockchain forensics with cyber intelligence and direct collaboration with cryptocurrency exchanges and law enforcement around the world. To recover stolen digital assets — even in the darkest corners of blockchain, when I reached out, the team at Dexdert started with forensic blockchain tracing, uncovering the maze of mixing services, private wallets, and overseas exchanges used to launder stolen BTC. What set them apart was their real-time AI-driven tracing tool that can follow the most obscure trails on multiple chains. Dexdert tracked my stolen BTC through decentralized mixers and shell accounts and identified a batch of BTC that had recently been converted and stored in dormant wallets connected to an unregulated exchange in Eastern Europe. Dexdert successfully recovered my 7 BTC, worth $500,000  after proving its illicit origin -Today, I am an active advocate for proactive recovery services. Without Dexdert Net Pro Recovery, I would have lost everything. Not only did they track down my Bitcoins, they also busted the entire scam network. If you’ve been scammed, don’t give up – contact a professional like Dexdert Net Pro Recovery before the trial runs out.

'Individuals are stepping up': Vern Cotter on Beauden Barrett's influence

In 2024, I received a substantial tax refund, which I saw as a golden opportunity to improve my financial situation. Eager to invest, I became interested in Bitcoin, a digital currency that many believe represents the future of finance. Unfortunately, my excitement led me to a fraudulent company that promised incredible returns on investments. Their persuasive tactics and seemingly legitimate operations drew me in, but it didn’t take long for me to realize that I had been deceived, and my hard-earned money $572,000 had vanished.Feeling devastated and hopeless after losing such a significant amount, I reached out to a friend who had faced a similar ordeal. They recommended a company called GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , which specializes in recovering lost Bitcoin. Although I was skeptical, my desperation pushed me to contact them for help.From the very first interaction with GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , I was impressed by their understanding and willingness to help.

Their dedication rekindled my hope of recovering my lost funds.Thanks to the diligent efforts of GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , I was able to reclaim my stolen Bitcoin. This experience not only restored my financial situation but also taught me invaluable lessons about the importance of conducting thorough research before making any investments. I now have a solid investment strategy in place and am much more cautious about where I allocate my funds.I want to emphasize the importance of being vigilant in the world of cryptocurrency. While Bitcoin offers tremendous potential as an investment, it also attracts scammers looking to exploit unsuspecting individuals.

How 'misunderstood' Rassie Erasmus is rolling back the clock

Nick - thanks for another good piece.


It’s remarkable that Matt Williams gets so upset about Bomb Squad tactics. He’s not just making recommendations, but getting all sweaty about bench splits. But it’s not really about bench splits. He just does not like forwards, and their role in the game.


I thought this quote was telling:

What about Kitshoff, what happened to his spine in South Africa? Do we know if that is as a result of the scrummaging they are put through?

Ouch. So we are really on a program of reducing scrummaging to reduce spinal injuries? That’s the mission? And based on the statistically significant dataset of one case, a case in which he openly admits that he does not have the details. Regardless, if his goal is to reduce spinal injuries for prop forwards then arguing about bench splits seems like an odd place to start.


It’s not just spinal injuries that he cares about. The risk of paralysis is an important issue, and he raises this too:

I’m a bit of a lone voice but, because of my club-mate Grant Harper (ex-Western Suburbs prop who was paralysed after a collapsed scrum), I’m not shutting up on it.

Injuries are horrible, and paralysis is truly awful. We should absolutely take it very seriously, and diligently implement whatever safety protocols and education programs we can to minimize these things. But we don’t ban skydiving or hang gliding, or crossing the road. Though Williams is not looking to ban rugby, he does seem to be intent on reducing the role of forwards in the game, based on entirely anecdotal data.


It’s hard to tell what it’s all about. He makes this supposed safety case and says that no-one in his echo chamber disagrees with him:

Every time I go out, old forwards and old props go up to me and they say, ‘you’re right’. I’ve never had anyone, apart from a few South Africans – because it’s good for South Africa – say it’s rubbish.

It’s weird that “old props” are hanging around his front door and lobbying him, or maybe he just doesn’t “go out” much. Could it be that all of the hand-wringing about bench splits and scrummaging injuries is really a proxy for something else? Is it possible his issue is not about safety at all?


Well, that is what it seems. For me the truth is in this comment:

Can Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Australia and Argentina compete against South Africa, New Zealand and France if that’s the way the game goes? The answer to that is no.

So, this is the real issue for him. The Bomb Squad tactic is a really good one, and you have to be really good to play against it. Or you should try to de-power it by banning it, wailing about injuries that it supposedly causes (it doesn’t) and clutching at anecdotal straws to make your case.


The above quote is an insult to the five countries named, and it also suggests that no-one is going to be smart enough to come up with a game plan that neutralizes the bomb squad or turns it to a relative weakness. Williams is just a noisy fan looking to change the laws to favor his team and his personal tastes.


I agree with your conclusions. This Rassie approach is far from being unfair to backs. Not only does it favor fleet-footed and versatile “skills players” in the double-digit positions, but each individual gets more game time in any given match.


Whenever I go out I get exactly zero “old backs” coming up to me and complaining about the Bomb Squad tactic.


Bravo, Rassie.
