Kidney in line for Leinster job

Former Munster coach Declan Kidney may be in line to take over from Gary Ella as Leinster's head coach.

Kidney, who played an integral part in Ireland's rise to the Triple Crown, is known to have a get-out clause is in his recently signed contract with Newport and Gwent Dragons.

It is thought likely that he will take advantage of the foresight it took to include one if he is offered the Leinster post.
