Former Australian captain Andrew Slack has been appointed coach of Super 12 team Queensland.

The 46-year-old, who succeeds sacked former coach Mark McBain, will coach the Reds for the next three seasons.

Slack played 39 tests for Australia and captained the Wallabies on their victorious grand slam tour of the home unions in 1984.

Since retiring from the test arena in 1987, Slack served as an assistant coach to the Reds before becoming a national selector.
