Gaffney sees red at Latham u-turn

MUNSTER coach Alan Gaffney is fuming over the decision of Wallaby full back Chris Latham’s decision to turn down an offer from the Irish province after signing a letter of intent to join them following the Rugby World Cup later this year.

But Gaffney believes there is no point in pursuing the matter. “We only want players who want to play for us,” he said yesterday. “As far as we’re concerned he’s made his decision and that’s final so we’re not going on with it. We don’t want people who don’t want to be here.”

Gaffney said Latham’s handling of the issue, after he told him eight days ago he was coming to Ireland, was “less than admirable.”
