    Former All Black and Toshiba Brave Lupus coach Todd Blackadder believes it won't take long for Richie Mo'unga to get back to his best

    Former All Black and Toshiba Brave Lupus coach Todd Blackadder believes it won't take long for Richie Mo'unga to get back to his best


    The 56-test All Black returns from his three-year stint in Japan on an 18-month contract with New Zealand Rugby starting next July.

    But he won't be eligible for the All Blacks until next October.

    Mo'unga will have a stint with Canterbury in the NPC before he's available for national selection.

    Blackadder - who coaches Mo'unga at Toshiba - was asked how long the playmaker needs to adjust back in New Zealand.
