This is Rugby Daily on Off the Ball with Bank of Ireland, a proud sponsor of Irish rugby, never stop competing.
Clareman Noel McNamara is the man in charge of the sensational Bordeaux attack.
He followed head coach Yannick Brew from URC side the Sharks to Chaban del Mas in 2023 and recently signed a contract extension running until the summer of 2029.
and he's the latest Irish coach to head over to France and make an impact in the top 14 in recent years, following the likes of Ronan O'Gara, Doneca Ryan, Jeremy Davidson and James Cullen, to name a few.
Myself and Dara Smith-Nocton caught up with Didier Rethier, former France forwards coach and ex-technical director of the FFR.
He's basically been the mastermind of the French player pathway system, which underwent a massive facelift under his command post the 2011 Rugby World Cup final.
His son Artur is likely to line out for Bordeaux this weekend, where he could claim a fourth Champions Cup winner's medal in five years, which is phenomenal.
But Didier also explained why Irish coaches are so in vogue among top 14 teams currently.
You can listen to that full piece in the OTP Rugby podcast feed right now.
