Williams to remain with Munster

JIM WILLIAMS will remain with Munster in a coaching capacity for at least a year.

Munster’s director of coaching Declan Kidney will meet with officials tomorrow and is expected to nominate Williams as a coaching assistant.

Rumours abounded this week about Williams’ future in Ireland. He had been linked with a coaching position in Japan, but Kidney is apparently anxious to have the inspirational former Australian international and ex-Munster captain on board.
