De Villiers to undergo Bok performance review

Springbok coach Peter de Villiers has met with senior members of the South African Rugby Union in Cape Town but will undergo a formal performance review next week.

De Villiers met with his employers at the request of the chairman of the SARU technical committee, Mr James Stoffberg after which SARU gave him his full backing.

SARU says the meeting was designed to assist leadership in understanding where they could assist the Springbok coach and management in achieving improved results on the home leg of the Tri-Nations campaign and also to discuss forward planning for the Rugby World Cup in 2011.

"We had a very productive meeting and there are areas where Peter will present us with his plans for the future and we will offer our support in realising them," said Mr Stoffberg, who is also vice president of the Union on the SA Rugby site.

"He has our full support and we are confident that we can quickly be put back on track."

The meeting was also attended by SARU president Mr Oregan Hoskins, Mr Mark Alexander (deputy president), SARU CEO Johan Prinsloo and Andy Marinos, manager of national teams.

Rugby officials said earlier this week that they would not be changing coach in the middle of the TriNations but SARU now says that a formal performance review of the Springbok coach will take place next week.
 
"We had an informal chat this morning and we intend to have a full review with him next week," SARU president Oregan Hoskins told Reuters.
 
"We would normally only have a review at the end of the Tri-Nations series, but this time we see the need to have one in the middle of the competition given the gravity of the situation."
 
"It's important that you don't change management at this stage, although it is certainly a grave situation. After three losses, we need to take stock and try to rectify the wrongs," Hoskins said.
 
"History is one thing, but recently we've done better over there and we won the Tri-Nations last year," Hoskins said.
 
"We want to improve rather than go backwards and we feel this year may be a step back."
