Two years ago (French club) Toulouse were a pretty good side. But today the Crusaders are a cut above anyone else. They have combinations who have been together for some time and even their players who aren't All Blacks are pretty impressive. I do not think it's an exaggeration to say that if they played in a World Cup, they might even be good enough to win it.

Growing up in Cape Town, South Africa Gold attended Wynberg Boys' High School.
Gold joined London Irish in July 2001 as Forwards Coach under Brendan Venter.

As Head Coach Gold led Irish to finishes of 8th and 10th position (of 12 teams) in what was then known as the Zurich Premiership. At the end of the 04/05 season Gold was offered a chance to return to his native Cape Town, London Irish agreed to release him from his contract and he returned to South Africa to take up the role of Forwards Coach at Western Province (rugby team).
After two seasons as Forwards Coach Gold took on the role of Head Coach at Western Province in July 2007 after Kobus Van Der Merwe and Jerome Paarwater resigned from their positions as Head Coach and Assistant Head Coach respectively.
