Laurie Fisher

With his trademark hairstyle, Laurie Fisher was the Head coach of the Super 14 ACT Brumbies between 2005 and 2008.

He began his coaching career with the Brumbies in 2000 when he was appointed Head Coach of the Brumbies Rugby Academy and later assumed control of the Brumby Runners and the Canberra Vikings. He implemented a rugby program aimed at developing the cream of local ACT rugby talent into players capable of competing for training contracts or full contracts with the Brumbies squad. Guy Shepherdson, Matt Giteau and Julian Salvi have all made successful transitions to the professional game under his guidance.

 In 2003, Laurie was promoted to the Brumbies forwards coach under David Nucifora and contributed to their success as 2004 Super 12 Champions. Fisher's contribution and devotion to the Brumbies as an assistant coach saw them earn success from 2000 as semi finalists, two time finalists and two time champions.

Laurie is set to continue his successful coaching career with one of the top European provincial rugby teams.
