Dave Rennie and Jonathan Humphreys to coach Barbarians for Samoa clash
Twickenham is set to stage a Barbarians double-header.
Australia head coach Dave Rennie and Wales assistant Jonathan Humphreys will take charge of the Barbarians for their clash against Samoa on November 27.
The Killick Cup Double-Header at Twickenham also sees the Barbarian women’s team facing South Africa.
Rennie and Humphreys worked together at Glasgow Warriors from 2017 until last year.
Rennie said: “It is a huge honour to be invited to coach the Barbarians later this year, and it should be a great occasion at Twickenham.
“The Barbarians are renowned for bringing together leading players from around the world, and the challenge for coaches is moulding them quickly into a team that can play expansive entertaining rugby for the fans to enjoy.
“We are in the process of assembling a great squad, and delighted Duane, Pablo and Malcolm have all accepted to play. Further player announcements will be made in the coming weeks.”
Humphreys added: “I look forward to joining up with Dave and hopefully get the team to put in a special performance on the day and finish off the autumn internationals in style.”
