THE Western Force will announce today that Wallabies skills maestro Richard Graham will join its coaching team.
The Sunday Times revealed two months ago the club was negotiating with Graham, who will become backs coach and take charge of kicking skills.
Graham, who has been working with Wallabies coach Robbie Deans, will replace former assistant John Mulvihill, who resigned at the end of last season with a year of his contract still to run.
Head coach John Mitchell's other foundation assistant coach Tom Fearn is also no longer with the club.
Matt Tink, who is manager of community rugby, will continue working with the scrum and Academy coach Geoff Townsend will double as skills coach.
Team manager Dick Trend has also parted ways with the club. It is expected current rugby general manager Mitch Hardy will fill the role.
