NSW State of Origin coach Ricky Stuart will reportedly replace Stephen Kearney as Parramatta coach.
Although Eels mangement deny a deal has been done, Fox Sports' Warren Smith says Stuart will take over the Parramatta role from 2013. It also means he will relinquish the role as Blues Origin coach.
Stuart, who has a record of four wins and five losses at Origin level, gave no hint of his intentions on
NRL on Fox last Wednesday night but did say that he couldn't coach at both club and representative level at the same time.
"The New South Wales Rugby League have got that policy at the moment that they have a neutral, full-time coach, and I think thats fair, I really do.
"Its a big job (to be NSW coach), and
I definitely wont be looking for a club that would allow me to do it."
