It's been a tumultuous year for coach Michael Cheika and the Wallabies, who have won just four of 13 tests. Photo: Getty ImagesA decision on the future of Wallabies coach Michael Cheika should be "wrapped up" by Christmas after he presented his end-of-year review at a Rugby Australia (RA) board meeting, according to chairman Cameron Clyne. The 51-year-old Cheika's future was clouded after a tumultuous year for the Wallabies, who won just four of 13 tests and showed little sign of improvement a year out from the Rugby World Cup. "I know people are keen to know what is going on but... we will have more to say and have that process wrapped up ahead of Christmas." Cheika's tenure began in late 2014 after Ewen McKenzie resigned and he guided the Wallabies on a surprising run to the 2015 Rugby World Cup final.
