The Lineout Brain – Geoff Parling (10/1)
Fresh from being confirmed as Michael Cheika’s successor at Leicester Tigers, Parling’s stock has never been higher.
A cerebral lock in his playing days, he could become England’s next forward-thinking head coach in more ways than one.
The Favourite Son – Andy Farrell (5/1)
Ireland’s Grand Slam-winning head coach and 2025 Lions boss, Farrell is perhaps the most coveted leader in world rugby right now. His blend of defensive steel and human touch has transformed Ireland into a powerhouse. Whether he’d swap Dublin for Twickenham is another story.
The Rebuilder – Stuart Lancaster (4/1)
Lancaster has quietly rebuilt his reputation since leaving England in 2015, thriving at Leinster and now in the URC with Connacht. A meticulous planner and player developer, he offers a second-chance narrative the RFU may find compelling. The bookies clearly think so.
