Northland rugby coach Bryce Woodward wasn't given an interview for the Highlanders head coaching position despite being the only person to publicly confirm he had applied for the vacant Super 14 role.

The shunning of Woodward further confirms Wellington coach Jamie Joseph is the front-runner for the position although an anncouncement on the man to replace Glenn Moore was expected more than a week ago, suggesting former All Blacks flanker Joseph is still considering his future.

Under New Zealand Rugby Union guidelines, Joseph must forego his role with Wellington, although he may be negotiating to stay on for a period after the province starts its national provincial championship campaign.
