been far from the case for Gloucester RFC this time around with a number of exciting developments taking
place. Rugby Club Magazine takes a look at some of the most significant.
Laurie Fisher
The former Director of Rugby at the Brumbies, Laurie
Fisher joins the club with a strong reputation for
developing young talent which would seem to be a

Speaking to the club’s official website, CEO Stephen

a great fit. We’re absolutely thrilled that he’ll be joining
us at Kingsholm as part of the new coaching set up.
