Sydney - Former All Black Daryl Gibson will replace Michael Cheika as the New South Wales Waratahs head coach for the next three Super Rugby seasons, the club said on Thursday.
In his third year as the Waratahs' attack coach, Gibson will take over from Cheika next season when the Wallabies coach focuses solely on the national team.
Gibson, 40, who played 19 Tests for the All Blacks, spent three seasons as the Canterbury Crusaders' assistant coach and also held coaching roles with the Glasgow Warriors and New Zealand Maori.
