I’d like to see what the old Peel and Jones combo can do together if Blackett decides to leave

The key issue for Scarlets is stability  and continuity. 
If you look at where  we have been....Easterby- to Ireland ,
Pivac/Steve to Wales, Moar to NZ, Delaney- replaced...all this in a comparatively  short period of time.

At present, we have a young and inexperienced team, comparatively,  leading scarlets.
Dwaine,  Franks, Emyr,  are new to there current roles, and I always felt it would time for these individuals  to fully develop. The technical  issues  regarding  line - out may be a  by product. 
Now we have had a fresh face in from Wasps, someone experienced, 
It's no accident,  that we seen an improvement. The variety of attacking strategies,  and the way we have been exploring  and executing  great running lines, has been wonderful. 

Top sides  like Leinster, to the best international  sides, seem to be able to maintain  staff and the consequences,  surely  is successful  continuity. 
Whatever  happens at Scarlets,  which is my main concern,  I sincerely  hope  we can follow suit

Hope he stays and realises the potential of this fantastic West Wales and its history and culture. Sometimes the bright lights are not what they seem...the Capitol of Scotland or the amazing Scarlets....absolutely no brainer for me.

One thing that came across was how much he had fallen back in love with coaching again and how much he was enjoying without everyone wanting a piece of him

How big a house could you buy down here for the price of a house in Midlands 

I known I'm clutching at straws but you never know

Edinburgh property is pretty pricey, too.

He's not staying here bois. We're probably talking about a long term deal in Edinburgh on the thick end of £300k. 
We're still still here, but I wish we were in an Anglo-Welsh

SRU have deep pockets unlike the clowns killing the Welsh Game. 

If it's Blackett and Franks gone, wonder who we recruit ?

Guess Stevo, Mark Jones etc are available back wise.
Forwards coach is a trickier one, can't think of many options. 
Will come down to finance.

Back to the days of player/coaches - an Owens/Shingler double act.

Don't want to lose his influence....

But Jenkins delivered for us with one of the best Scarlet sides ever. Dwayne you can do it.
