Kiwi coaches in frame for Wales
By Online Editors
Three Kiwi coaches are believed to be shortlisted to succeed Warren Gatland to be the next Wales coach after the 2019 Rugby World Cup.
The list includes former Chiefs and Glasgow coach Dave Rennie, former Auckland coach Wayne Pivac and Hurricanes coach Chris Boyd as possibilities.
Rennie responded to the claims but indicated he has not been involved in any discussions and is surprised to be linked to the Wales job.
"There will be plenty of guys keen to take over after Gats, so I am sure that will play out over the next year or so," he told Wales Online.
"I keep saying I'm a young coach but I'm not getting any younger.
"When I came over here I was pretty keen to be involved in the week-to-week stuff, because you get a chance to work with a lot of players with regards development and so on."

I reckon it may be Jordan at 10 and Nohamba at 9, both players have played together alot and both have been on the Radar for a long time. After Pollard got injured in 2022 with Elton sidelined on a path of self destruction Erasmus and Nienaber indicated that the other options in the country at the time were thin but that Jordan and Manie were the 2 they were looking at. In the end Frans steyn played flyhalf, Willemse slotted in there on the end of year with Libbok as back up. Jordan was right there in the thinking back then so expect him to take the Jersey either as the starter.
