A former right-hand man of Eddie Jones is in the running to become NSW coach, after a previous front-runner opted for a move to Japan.
A former right-hand man of Eddie Jones and Dave Rennie has emerged as a leading contender for the Waratahs’ head coach job as urgency to fill the role builds, with more coaches and senior players exiting and Rebels stars baulking at a move to Sydney.
Former Wallabies and England attack coach Scott Wisemantel has emerged as a potential front-runner, according to multiple sources, who are unable to speak on the record due to the confidential nature of the matter. Missing out on Rebels players would be disastrous for the Waratahs, who have spots on their roster earmarked for them.
