So,
Don't hate the messenger and I don't think this will happen, but in the papers today it was reported that Warren Gatland had no concrete job offers but had had communication with several premiership clubs...
The RFU should break the bank to get Gatland as Jones’ post-World Cup replacement


Would you be happy with him bringing his entire coaching setup with him too?
I feel that's what you get with Gatland now. You also get Edwards and Howley.

Would Gatland really want to move from Wales to England?
I feel that he'd be looking for a bigger change of scene than that

I'd read previously that he wouldn't consider the RFU job (whether he meant that or not I don't know).

I’d be delighted with Edwards, but don’t think he’ll be moving with Gatland. He’s back to League, no?

Howley, id be surprised if he too goes with him. Especially for the England job.

Gatland has pretty much delivered wherever he’s gone. If it wasn’t for O’Gara and a moment of madness he’d have had it all to play for on the tour to South Africa.

Not a bad trio of Lions tours had that of been the case and still a successful tour to Oz and drawn tour to NZ isn’t to be sniffed at.

*edit: of course he was Forwards Coach, not Head Coach... doh
