Michael Cheika has confirmed he won’t seek re-appointment as Wallabies coach following their failure at the Rugby World Cup.
A day after his team were outclassed 40-16 by England in their quarter-final in Oita, Cheika confirmed he will stand down, ending five years in the role.
Cheika’s tenure was marked by a successful 2015 World Cup campaign in which Australia reached the final and a disappointing display in Japan, marking a gradual decline in their standards.
‘It is no secret I have no relationship with the CEO [Raelene Castle] and not much with the chairman [Cameron Clyne],’ Cheika said.
More to come.
