William Hill make Warren Gatland the 3/1 favourite to be England’s next coach with rumours circulating over Eddie Jones’ future after another disappointing Six Nations campaign.

Jones is odds-on at 4/6 to still be in charge come England’s first Autumn International against Argentina in early November, but given he’s just 11/10 to not be, Hills have chalked up a list of potential replacements with former Wales and Lions head coach Gatland the leading contender.

William Hill spokesperson, Tony Kenny, said: “Just two wins in this year’s Six Nations was another poor return for Eddie Jones and at 11/10 we think there’s a strong chance he might be replaced as England’s head coach."
