NSW Waratahs coach Daryl Gibson accepts the final year of his contract could come under scrutiny from the NSW Rugby Union board now his team has missed out on the Super playoffs for two straight years.

The Tahs have won just four of 13 games and their playoff hopes were extinguished on the weekend, after they lost to the Chiefs and the Brumbies beat the Rebels to win the Australian conference.

“I feel well supported by the board and the organisation and if they feel they need to go in another direction, that’s part of coaching and what you sign up for,” Gibson said.
