FORMER Hull FC boss Brett Hodgson has found a new coaching role following his short-lived time as England rugby union defence coach.
Hodgson had been in the role barely a month before head coach Eddie Jones was given his marching orders and the rest of his backroom staff followed.
Now, Hodgson has followed Jones to be Australia’s defence coach.
“Brett’s a hard working and detailed young coach who will be a great asset to the Wallabies and the coaching staff,” Jones said.
“He’s worked under some great coaching mentors like Gus Gould and Tim Sheens in his time as a player and a coach, so he’s well schooled and I know he’ll give his best to the job of producing the best defence in the world.”
