Leon MacDonald lands first Super Rugby job since All Blacks exit
Leon MacDonald has joined the Western Force as a coaching consultant, marking his return to Super Rugby Pacific after leaving Scott Robertson’s All Blacks coaching team last year.
The former Blues head coach joined the All Blacks as an assistant following the 2023 World Cup as part of Robertson’s new team, but parted ways just five Tests into a four-year contract due to a difference in opinions with his boss.
He has now marked his return to Super Rugby, joining a Western Force side that earned an epic 45-44 win over Moana Pasifika at the death in the opening round of this year’s competition on Saturday.
The former All Black will assist the Force’s current coaches during the 2025 season and will work alongside CEO Niamh O’Connor to make the club “a world class coaching hub.”
“I’m excited about taking on this position,” MacDonald said after arriving in Perth. “It’s a different role to that I’m accustomed to but I’m excited by that challenge and looking forward to supporting the coaches.
“What stood out about this project is the Western Force are very aspirational as a rugby club, currently boasting nine Wallabies and eight Wallaroos.
“The club is determined to become a real force in the Super Rugby competition and their energy and enthusiasm really caught me. Of course, they are also based in a beautiful part of the world, so I’m looking forward to the move.
“There’s plenty of optimism and excitement building around Australia rugby again. I was excited to be a part of this resurgence.”
O’Connor added: “Leon’s appointment is part of our three-stage plan and vision to make the Western Force the best club in the world as a player, as a coach, as a high performance staff member and as an administrator.
“The next phase in that re-build is to put solid foundations in place for the future that sets up long-term sustainability for our club.
“Coaching framework and pathways are a major cornerstone of long-term sustainability, so this is an appointment with that in mind.
“Leon brings a wealth of experience, having played and coaches at the highest level. His availability was too good an opportunity not to utilise.”

In the early months of 2025, I made a decision that would haunt me for weeks—a decision born out of greed and the allure of quick wealth. I invested 95,000 Bitcoin into an online platform that promised exponential returns. The website looked legitimate, the testimonials seemed convincing, and the numbers they presented were irresistible. But as the days passed, the platform went silent. My investment vanished, and I realized I had fallen victim to a sophisticated scam. I was devastated, feeling like I had lost everything.Desperate for help, I began searching for solutions online. That’s when I discovered *Galaxy Ethical Tech*, a company renowned for its expertise in blockchain forensics and digital asset recovery. Known for their ethical approach and cutting-edge technology, they had a track record of helping people like me recover lost funds. With nothing left to lose, I reached out to them, hoping for a miracle.The team at Galaxy Ethical Tech, led by a brilliant blockchain analyst named *Dr. Elena Voss*, responded immediately. Dr. Voss listened to my story with empathy and assured me they would do everything in their power to help. She explained that while the process would be complex and time-consuming, their advanced tools and expertise gave them a fighting chance.
The recovery process began with a deep dive into the blockchain. Using sophisticated algorithms, Galaxy Ethical Tech traced the movement of my Bitcoin. They identified the wallets where my funds had been transferred and uncovered a network of interconnected accounts designed to obscure the trail. The scammers had used multiple layers of transactions to launder the funds, but Dr. Voss and her team were relentless.Weeks turned into months, and the team kept me updated every step of the way. They worked tirelessly, navigating the labyrinth of the blockchain and collaborating with international authorities to freeze suspicious accounts. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, I received the news I had been praying for: Galaxy Ethical Tech had successfully recovered *85,000 Bitcoin* of my lost funds. The remaining amount had been irretrievably laundered, but recovering the majority felt like a miracle.When the funds were securely returned to my wallet, I was overwhelmed with gratitude. Dr. Voss and her team didn’t just recover my Bitcoin—they restored my faith in the possibility of justice in the digital world. They also provided me with invaluable advice on how to protect my assets in the future, emphasizing the importance of due diligence and secure storage solutions.Galaxy Ethical Tech didn’t just save me from financial ruin; they gave me a second chance. Their commitment to ethical practices, combined with their unparalleled expertise, made them true heroes in my eyes. From that day forward, I became an advocate for their work, sharing my story as a cautionary tale and a testament to the power of technology used for good. Thanks to Galaxy Ethical Tech, what began as a nightmare ended with hope and a renewed sense of security. contact them via Email: galaxyethicaltech@mail.com Whatsapp: +15072712442 Telegram: Galaxy_ethical_tech

Another smart alec thinks he knows it all kiwi coming over to undermine Australian rugby.
The Western Force will go down as the iron ore price collapses. It will serve them right for selling their Australian souls to kiwis.
Just wondering…is fuckwittery a real word?
Man. To think of all this poor suckers who bet money on the force to take out the competition, only for this to happen….
Leon clearly had a clause in his pay off to stay quiet, but there is too much to what must have been behind his ABs exit to not come out. Leon and Razor knew each other too well for this to be a storm in a tea cup, something pretty fundamental must have happened or changed in points of view.
You mean as apposed to rugby philosophy?
Sorrry I didn’t read the article, whats the deal if so?
Most simple explanation is usually the correct one. Leon was the attack coach, and he probably wanted to play a structured game. Robertson seems more loose with his ABs playstyle.
