Former Munster out-half Tyler Bleyendaal is now the Leinster attack coach.
ALTHOUGH HIS YOUNG family were well settled at home in New Zealand, with a third child on the way, Tyler Bleyendaal found it impossible to resist the lure of Ireland when Leo Cullen came calling.
“Loved it,” says Bleyendaal. “I know people would say, ‘Aw shit, but it was Limerick’ but I had a great time, great friends. We really enjoyed our time living there.”“No, I’m on the coaching side now so it is different,” he says. “Playing-wise it might have been a bit different but coaching is such a great opportunity.
The young Kiwi coach says he had admired a lot about Leinster over the preceding years and after a discussion with Laura, felt it was the right next step in his burgeoning career. “I am doing the attack,” says Bleyendaal. “Me and Jacques combine around the kick and how you counter the kicking in defence, how you kick in transition, how the game works and how the kicking game ties it together.”
