Western Force coach Richard Graham is set to leave Perth at the end of the Super Rugby season to join the Queensland Reds.

It’s understood the current title-winning coach Ewen McKenzie will become director of coaching at Queensland and former Reds fullback Graham will take a senior coaching role.

Graham will make the announcement at a Force press conference in Perth later on Monday.

Australian Rugby Union boss John O’Neill last week revealed that McKenzie was a strong candidate to succeed current Wallabies coach Robbie Deans when his contract with the ARU expires at the end of next year.
