Glasgow's three coaches set to take on international roles
Shade will join the interim coaching team to prepare Scotland for their next two matches
Hugh Campbell, Sean Lineen and Shade Munro will meet with Frank Hadden as preparations for the upcoming games against The Barbarians and Romania.
Hugh Campbell and Steve Bates, the head coaches of Glasgow and the Borders respectively, will be part of Hadden’s inner circle and will aid him on team selection. They will be joined by the specialist coaches Sean Lineen (backs), George Graham (forwards) and Alan Tait (defence).
The new six-man coaching team will meet for the first time on Tuesday and will be aided by Glasgow’s Shade Munro and Edinburgh’s Carl Hogg and Todd Blackadder, who will all have an input as preparation begins for the two games.
Fred McLeod, the SRU’s acting chairman and chief executive, stressed the appointments were temporary, but Hadden clearly views this as an opportunity to make his mark with the national side. The coach said: "While it’s only for a couple of weeks it gives us the opportunity to stake a claim."
