新西兰籍教练弗恩·科特（Vern Cotter）被任命为昆士兰红队主教练，肩负起终结澳大利亚橄榄球超级联赛锦标荒的重任1。澳大利亚最后一次赢得该项赛事冠军已是2014年，当时由沃塔赫队夺冠1。
科特拥有丰富的高水平执教经历1。他在2005年至2006年担任新西兰Crusaders队前锋教练期间，连续两个赛季赢得超级橄榄球冠军1，此后在法国Clermont队执教时也获得Top 14顶级联赛冠军1。最近，他在2024年带领奥克兰蓝队赢得超级橄榄球太平洋杯1。
对于即将面临的挑战，科特认为澳洲与新西兰球队之间的差距实际上很小，仅为"2-3%"1，这个差距可以通过提高体能和保持一致性来弥补。昆士兰红队将于9月12日对阵Force队开启新赛季的超级橄榄球澳大利亚赛事1。
Vern Cotter has been appointed head coach of the Queensland Reds with the mission of breaking Australian rugby's Super Rugby premiership drought 1. The New Zealand coach brings extensive experience at elite level, having won the 2024 Super Rugby Pacific Cup with Auckland Blues and the Top 14 championship with French club Clermont 1. Earlier in his career, Cotter secured back-to-back Super Rugby titles while serving as forwards coach for the Crusaders in 2005-2006 1.
Australia's last Super Rugby premiership came when the Waratahs claimed the title in 2014 1. Cotter believes the gap between Australian and New Zealand teams is merely 2-3 percent, suggesting that improvements in fitness and consistency could prove decisive 1. The Super Rugby Australia season will commence on September 12 with the Reds facing the Force 1.
