Eddie Jones is looking for an Australian smash and grab attack at the Rugby World Cup

Wallabies coach Eddie Jones says he is ready to launch a “smash and grab” campaign to win the Rugby World Cup and Bledisloe Cup after confirming his coaching team.

Australia coach Eddie Jones says he is ready to launch a “smash and grab” campaign to win the Rugby World Cup and Bledisloe Cup after confirming his coaching team.

Jones, who took charge of the Wallabies in January after being sacked by England the previous month, has appointed Brad Davis as attack coach with former Australia internationals Dan Palmer and Berrick Barnes also joining the staff.

“We believe we have the quality coaching staff to plan and prepare the team for a successful campaign, winning the Bledisloe Cup and ending with winning the Rugby World Cup,” said Jones, who took England to the world cup final in 2019.

“It is an experience, diverse and adaptable.”

Former rugby league player Davis coached in London Ireland this season having previously worked with Bath, Wasps and Ospreys.

Ex-Wallaby prop Palmer, assistant coach at the ACT Brumbies, will become line coach alongside Neal Hatley, who was appointed offensive coordinator earlier this year.

Former England scrum coach Hatley will join the Wallabies after completing the season with Premiership side Bath.

Barnes, who won 51 caps for Australia as an outside half, will work as a half-time kick consultant with former Castres boss Pierre-Henry Broncan appointed as maul consultant and Jon Clarke leading the strength and conditioning team – a role he filled with England.

Australia begins its Rugby Championship campaign against South Africa in Pretoria on 8 July.
