Munster face fight to keep Stephen Larkham amid Waratahs link - Independent.ie
Munster are facing a battle to keep hold of their highly-regarded senior coach Stephen Larkham who is being courted by the Waratahs in his native Australia.
The World Cup-winning Wallaby great signed a three-year contract when he arrived in Limerick in 2019, but could be tempted by a return home after two seasons as the underachieving Sydney-based franchise look for a replacement for ex-Reds supremo Rob Penney.

The rumours have started

The pressing question here is if Larkham signs for the Tahs, how much will Slim’s wine consumption go up?

He hasn't really had any success as a head coach so I'm not sure he'd be the most desirable candidate for the Tahs.

He's not the head coach but Munster have done well (second in Pro 14).

Are the stories that he's struggling that he doesn't really like living in Ireland or that his coaching role apparently isn't going that well?

I am more concerned with his conservative approach as head coach, for a guy who played glorious attacking rugby with lots of players in motion and attacking threat, his coaching is/was kick and maul

I think his probably grown as a coach from when he was at the Brumbies, then Australia and now Munster, I wouldnt like to see a Brumbies Favorite son going to the Tah's but you could do alot worse then Larkham as coach. I'm certain his way of rugby will suit the team he coaches. You could do alot worse.

Pretty sure I read somewhere where the reports of him linked were denied, and that he wouldn’t be seen dead there such is his dislike for the Tahs.

Not impressed with Larkham so far. Has an insane roster to play with and manages to beat everyone else in the Pro 14 except Leinster who roll Munster without breaking a sweat. Performing as expected, no more no less.
