London Irish have added Brad Davis to their coaching set-up for the start of the new Premiership season.
The Australian brings a rugby league playing background to the Exiles, but boasts considerable coaching experience in union with Bath, Wasps and the Ospreys.
“I'm really excited at the opportunity to join London Irish. The club is steeped in history and is on an exciting journey as it moves into the Premiership next season,” said Davis.
“Having spoken at length with the club, I am excited about the vision and look forward to working in London Irish's coaching team.”
Irish director of rugby Declan Kidney believes the addition of Davis will round off a promising coaching group which includes head coach Les Kiss, forwards coach George Skivington and defence coach Dec Denaher. See how London Irish fare in the Premiership betting stakes with this odds comparison.
“He has a wealth of coaching experience working with some very good sides and has experience of playing in Europe,” Kidney told the club's official website.
“Brad will add a vast amount of knowledge to our coaching set-up and will complement the already great work our current coaches do. I know that Les, George and Dec are really looking forward to having him on board.”
