REPORT: Rugby Australia approach Jones over potential role
NEWS: Eddie Jones could rejoin the Wallabies after the 2023 World Cup.
According to the Sydney Morning Herald’s sources, Rugby Australia has been in contact with Jones recently about a role with Australian rugby after next year’s event in France.
Jones’ contract with England comes to an end after that tournament.
The report by the Herald reveals that RA has had Jones in their sights for a while now and they are open to him getting a Director of Rugby role.
However, there will also be the option for Jones, who coached the Wallabies between 2001 and 2005, to take the head coach duties from Dave Rennie.

Rennie’s contract with Rugby Australia runs to the end of 2023 and his current record is not looking too good.
The Wallabies have only won one of their last six Tests and Rennie’s overall win percentage is 39 percent.
Australia will also be hosting the 2027 and an offer to rejoin his home country might be too good to ignore for Jones.
