After weeks of speculation about the Australian set-up, coach Dave Rennie has spoken for the first time.
last month, Jones said he thought Rennie had done a “really good job under difficult circumstances”.
“All I’ll say is I haven’t signed with Kobe,” Rennie said. “My focus is totally here. We’ve spent a big chunk of December when we got back doing reviews and World Cup planning. What happens beyond 2023 will probably be a bit clearer in the next few months.” Meanwhile, Rennie said he had someone in mind to take over from Scott Wisemantel after his unexpected resignation as attack coach eight months out from the World Cup.
“To be a selector, you need to watch a lot of footy,” Rennie said. “We’re not looking for an independent [selector] to come in and change things up and have a massive say on who we’re picking unless they’re in the mixer and they have an understanding of the players coming through.”
