FORMER MUNSTER COACH Tony McGahan is now in charge of the Melbourne Rebels in Super Rugby and he has done a good job with them in his second season in charge.
They haven’t finished higher than 12th in any of their first four seasons in existence but are currently in ninth and just two points off the playoff spots.

They recorded a resounding 42-22 bonus point win over the Auckland Blues earlier this morning and former Leinster hooker Tom Sexton played a part in the build-up to their third try.
And the Melbourne Rebels Twitter account really enjoyed Sexton’s role in Scott Higginbotham’s score.
How good was the carry into contact from @tomsexton02 for Higgers' try? They'll be high-fiving in the Emerald Isle! pic.twitter.com/Cyu2EO2FYy

The Melbourne Rebels Twitter account really enjoyed a former Leinster hooker's big break earlier
