Waratahs coach Daryl Gibson says while he hasn’t given up on retaining Wallaby star Kurtley Beale (pictured), it’s important for the club to keep moving forward.

Beale is considering a massive $2.7million two year deal being offered by London club Wasps and the coach knows it will be a tall order for Beale to knock the offer back.

If he does make the move, Beale would still be eligible to play for the Wallabies under the Giteau Law but that’s no consolation for the Waratahs coach.
