Eddie Jones to coach Queensland

Eddie Jones has agreed to coach Queensland a month after being dumped as Wallabies coach.

Jones agreed to a three-year deal with the Reds yesterday after losing his job in charge of the national team last month after a disastrous season.

Jones will work on player development and recruitment before he takes over the coaching role from Jeff Miller at the conclusion of the 2006 Super 14 season.

Former Wallabies flanker Miller was told last year his contract would not be renewed beyond this season.
