FORMER Wasps boss Lee Blackett is the favourite to replace Mike Blair, whose shock departure from Edinburgh was confirmed at the end of last week.
Blackett, right, has been coaching the backs at the Scarlets since the demise of Wasps earlier this season and had been mentioned as a possible replacement for Pat Lam if he leaves Bristol Bears.
Blair says he wants to focus on becoming “a world-class attack coach” and Blackett is the favourite to step into his shoes with Ed Robinson, who worked under him at Wasps and is now at Coventry.
