Brumbies eye McGahan

NOT content with courting a key cog in Declan Kidney’s Ireland set-up, Super rugby powerhouse the Brumbies seem intent on disrupting Munster’s build-up to tomorrow night’s primetime showdown with Leinster.

The Canberra side let it be known to sources in Australia yesterday that Tony McGahan has now joined Alan Gaffney — as well as a host of other big names in the rugby world — on the shortlist for the vacant head coach’s job.

McGahan is firmly under contract at Thomond Park until at least the end of next season, having signed an extension to his deal midway through last term.
