Brewer and Steadman join Hadden in Scotland set-up

Mike Brewer and Graham Steadman have joined Scotland boss Frank Hadden's coaching staff.

Former All Blacks captain Brewer is moving from Leinster to be national forwards coach, while former Great Britain rugby league international Steadman was the Ireland’s defence coach until he was replaced this summer.

Head coach Hadden said: ``To secure the services of the ex-All Blacks captain Mike Brewer is a boost. He is now a very experienced coach having worked in club rugby in Ireland, England and Italy before becoming forwards coach for Leinster.

"Graham Steadman is among the most experienced defence coaches in the world having now spent five years in that position in rugby union with firstly Munster and then Ireland," he continued.

"That followed his 21-year-career as an international player and coach in rugby league."
