The new Manu Samoa rugby coach says he plans to use the upcoming November tour to build depth and give a wide range of players a chance to press their case for World Cup selection.

Steve Jackson was appointed on Friday to replace Fuimaono Titimaea Tafua.

The former Blues assistant coach told Vinnie Wylie his job is to change people's perceptions of the team and put together a really competitive squad.
