Australia head coach Robbie Deans will reportedly be released from his position with the national team and replaced by Ewen McKenzie of the Queensland Reds.

Widespread reports have suggested that Deans's career with the Wallabies was due to come to an end following Australia's Test defeat to the British and Irish Lions.

Australian media have claimed that McKenzie will take Deans's position from tomorrow, according to Sky Sports News.

Deans became head coach in 2007.
