Jake White's agent has flatly denied that the World Cup winner is interested in coaching either Wales or Australia. White, who has confirmed that he will not be continuing as coach of South African after their forthcoming British tour, has been linked to a host of possible roles, including the vacant posts with the Wallabies and Wales.

The Australian Rugby Union revealed this week White had been in contact with them about the vacancy left by John Connolly's departure, and he had also been mentioned as a possible replacement for former Wales coach Gareth Jenkins.

But White's agent, Craig Livingstone, has played down the links. "He's made no decision on his future, but I can confirm he's definitely not applying for the Wallabies job," Livingstone said. "He's also unlikely to pursue a career with Wales. The Bok coaching matter has now been finalised and sorted out and all Jake wants to do now is take some time out. It'll be at least six months before he makes any decision on his future."

White used his farewell press conference to launch an attack on SA Rugby after they had revealed that he was not on a shortlist of four names to fill the position. White said he was "extremely disappointed" and had "plenty of sadness" as he walked away from a role he had filled for the past four years.

He will lead the side on their tour of Britain later this month before stepping down. The Springboks are due to play Wales on November 24, before taking on the Barbarians at Twickenham a week later - White's final game in charge.
