Origin coach

Blues to decide Origin coach next month

The NSW Rugby League board met on Tuesday morning to finalise a job description for Laurie Daley's replacement and discuss interested applicants for the position.

NSW Rugby League chief executive David Trodden confirmed front-runner Brad Fittler was one of the final quartet, while John Cartwright, David Furner and Michael Maguire are also rumoured to be in the running.

"Between now and the next meeting we will interview the people who have expressed an interest, with the view to make a decision at the next board meeting which is on the 24th of November," Trodden told AAP.
