White looking for a rest

White, who led the Springboks to victory in France last month, has been linked with a number of jobs after revealing he would not be renewing his contract with SA Rugby, which expires on December 31.
"At this point, straight from the horse's mouth, I'd like some time off," said White.
Speaking in Cardiff where South Africa are preparing for the Prince William Cup clash against Wales at the Millennium Stadium on Saturday, White added: "I've been quite amazed by how many jobs I've been offered in the newspapers that I haven't really got to know about.
"But as I've always said, it's unbelievable to think there have been six World Cups and England have been to three finals.
"In some ways, England probably play a similar style to South Africa and I've had links with England before when the Rob Andrew job (elite performance director) was available, and that's why people have asked would I consider it.
"When you're involved in rugby you always want to make sure you can add value to teams that you think are going to suit the way you coach.
"That's why I've said England would always be a country I'd be interested in."
