Brendan Venter has stated his intention to collaborate closely with the Rugby Football Union despite recently criticizing Premiership Rugby as an autocracy. Venter met with Conor O'Shea, the RFU executive director of performance at Twickenham and his former London Irish coach, to detail Saracens' development pathway for their emerging young talent.
