I'll pass over the fact that on a regular basis, he appears to think that the French, Irish and Italians are all British (albeit he might want to get a decent atlas). But just look at that sentence. Take out the bits in parentheses, as they don't affect the sense of it at all. You're left with:
And that, dear Scarfers, makes no sense at all as written.
The worst thing is, he goes on to then say how hard it'll be, but any wins will be rare and hard-fought - making exactly the same point as the NH journos.
If you mean coaches working in Europe - well, Jim Williams ain't doing to badly, nor have Hansen and Henry. I note Fabien Galthie is now working with Argentina as well. And if it's about lifting coaches from overseas, people in glass houses... :
He also makes some scandalous accusations about the Scottish players en bloc and the SRU, which he will be bloody lucky if he doesn't get sued for. Would be obliged if they weren't repeated here, for that reason.

How many European coaches, for instance, are being chased to coach in Southern Hemisphere nations?
