THE RFU have already started their search for Eddie Jones’ successor as England coach.
The Australian has said he will stand down from the Red Rose when his contract runs out after the 2023 World Cup.
And Blindside can reveal that the RFU’s director of performance rugby Conor O’Shea is looking to see who is available.
Former Leicester Tigers and Edinburgh boss Richard Cockerill, who joined Jones’ staff this summer, is an early contender.
