RONAN O'GARA has thrown his hat back in the ring for a job at Twickenham and put other home nations on red alert.
The former Ireland fly-half is now head coach at Top 14 side La Rochelle, who he has helped to two Champions Cup titles in the past three years.
O'Gara, 47, was linked with the England head coach post when Eddie Jones, right, was shown the door in 2022 but extended his stay in France until 2027.
He has done the hard yards at club level as an assistant coach working at Racing 92 in Paris and under All Blacks head coach Scott Robertson at the Crusaders before joining La Rochelle in 2019.
