Coaching appointment for France star

France hooker William Servat has been named as Toulouse's new forwards coach for next season. Servat will take over from Yannick Bru, who will join the back-room staff of the national team on a full-time basis in the summer. Servat, who will continue to play until the end of his current deal in 2013, has won two domestic and three Heineken Cup titles during his time at Toulouse. "It means a lot because I came to Toulouse (in 1994) and I feel at home here," the 34-year-old said. "It's better to retire (from playing) when you choose to. This is the next step in my career."
