Who is the attack coach again, although I'm sure there are valid reasons why it's not their fault?

Hodge may not be a world beating coach, but this is not all at his door. We could have had Joe Schmidt coaching the all black back line, but if they only get the ball when the forwards have run aground it's hard going.

Hodge is the Attack coach, not the Backs coach, according to the press releases from Edinburgh when Cockerill arrived.
What do we think the "KPIs" should be for either an Attack coach or a Backs coach?

Hodge isn't the one telling the pack to pick and go every opportunity. That's got Cockers finger prints. Now we can ask why they went from trying to play a game to 10 man rugby.

So there's no way to judge the effectiveness of the attack coach then, because "it's all Cockerill's fault"?
