Sky Sports Rugby pundit and England World Cup winner Will Greenwood has been appointed as Barbarians coach to assist Robbie Deans against South Africa at Wembley on November 5. Greenwood was part of Sir Clive Woodwards World Cup winning side in 2003, when Jonny Wilkinsons dramatic drop-goal in extra time sealed a 20-17 victory over Australia.And the 43-year-old former Leicester and Harlequins centre admitted he was relishing the opportunity to coach one of the most famous teams in international rugby. My parents are teachers and my fathers a coach so Ive sort of grown up in the coaching, teaching environment, Greenwood told Sky Sports News HQ.I love the positive side to it. I love the mental side. [Wembley] is a 90,000-seater stadium, Im hoping its going to be full. The Barbarians play South Africa a week before South Africa take on Eddie Jones England at Twickenham.So its the first chance to see a new-look South Africa team. Theyll have a new coach. Theyve got wonderful talent, if you think of Jessie Kriel and [Handre] Pollard, so its a tremendously exciting opportunity for me. The Barbarians have the elite of world rugby talent to choose from Greenwood also hinted that a future coaching position could be of interest to him.One that I jumped at and grabbed immediately with both hands when the opportunity came, he said of the offer to team up with former Australia boss Deans.I love coaching down at Maidenhead - with a good couple of wins in the last two weeks - at home to Towcester [and] at home to Windsor, the Englishman said.I was [recently] on the touchline watching my son play in a Sevens competition. They lost in the final to the mighty Beacons school so my heart rate fluctuates more than you might see with Eddie Jones. Hes so calm when hes up in the coaching box. I tend to be more of a Stuart Pearce, jump up and down, nut every ball, kick every ball, make every tackle. Ill try and retain my composure and, in the week leading up to it, hopefully well be able to put in some structures.Were going to be able to coach some unbelievably talented players, who know the ins and outs of modern rugby. For myself and Robbie Deans its about giving them some structure, giving them some organisation.[We want players] representing the Barbarians, one of the finest teams there is, [who will] hopefully do the shirt justice. Heyneke steps down South Africa coach quits Kiwi Deans is the most successful coach in Super Rugby history after winning five titles with the Crusaders between 2000 and 2008. He returns to the Barbarians helm after coaching them to a win over Ireland and a defeat against England in May 2014.South Africa are due to name their new head coach to succeed Heyneke Meyer next month.
