Blues confirm Matt Sherratt’s appointment

As revealed by Jon Newcombe in The Rugby Paper on December 20, Matt Sherratt will leave Bristol at the end of the season to join the Cardiff Blues as attack and backs coach.
Sherratt will move to the Arms Park next summer and work under head coach Danny Wilson.
He said: “I'm thrilled to be able to take the opportunity to work at Cardiff Blues and alongside Danny once again.
“I've really enjoyed the last five years at Bristol Rugby, a club with fantastic supporters and staff. But I felt it was time for the next challenge in my career and so I'm looking forward to the move to Wales in 2016.
“My focus is now totally committed to the cause at Bristol Rugby and the remainder of the 2015/16 season as we strive to achieve promotion to the English Premiership.”
Wilson added: “I'm delighted that Matt Sherratt will join us. I worked closely with him at Bristol and he always impressed me with his attention to detail and we share a similar coaching philosophy and view of the game.
“Matt has a great depth of knowledge and worked with senior players such as Dwayne Peel, Gavin Henson and David Lemi at Bristol to earn their full respect.
“Matt is an exciting addition to the team and a talented coach who is keen to start a new chapter in his career and make a big impression at Cardiff Blues.
“His arrival will see us add to the coaching team and I'm pleased that Paul John will not only work with us on a full-time basis as Skills Coach but that we can also support him during his Master's degree.”
