Dan McKellar is out as Waratahs head coach after two seasons that failed to meet expectations, exiting with a year remaining on his contract. Citing 'personal reasons,' McKellar's departure signals a reset for the NSW franchise as they look to arrest a slide in Super Rugby performance. During his tenure, the Waratahs struggled to find consistency, often falling short in crucial matches.
