Former Springboks coach Jake White has revealed that he would consider taking over the Wallabies coaching reins if the chance arose.
White is viewed in some circles as a possible replacement for current Wallabies head coach Michael Cheika, who has guided the two‑time world champions to five losses in seven Tests in 2018.
Despite being contracted until the end of the 2019 World Cup, Cheika is under pressure to retain his job after the Wallabies' poor results have seen them drop to seventh on the World Rugby rankings.
White, who was the Springboks' coach when they won the 2007 World Cup in France and guided the Brumbies to a runners‑up spot in Super Rugby in 2013, said he still has a desire to coach at Test level and would consider the Wallabies job if it became available.
The Wallabies meet the Sringboks this Sunday at 3.05am while the All Blacks face Argentina at 10am Sunday.
