Re: 2022 Six Nations
Mate of mine reckons Borthwick & x2 assistants lined up to come in; with EJ negotiating severance package. He has some kind of 'in' at RFU, and normally about right - but who knows!

Re: 2022 Six Nations
Rejoice, it's happened finally.
Borthwick is fine by me, although I do like Scott Robertson as the wild card

Re: 2022 Six Nations
Long overdue. He should have gone after the 6 nations earlier in the year. Now it's no time before the 6N and not a lot to the world cup.

Re: 2022 Six Nations
Never understood why we ditched Sir Clive Woodward, a brilliant rugby coach, who won us the Rugby World Cup and replaced him with twice losing one

Re: 2022 Six Nations
Had to deal with the squad rebuild after 03, which was always going to be a hard task, then went off to manage the Lions. Gavin Henson threw the mother of all tantrums, a bunch of other Welsh players whined to the press (fair enough, they'd just won a brilliant Slam) and SCW's reputation never fully recovered.Puff Daddy wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 1:43 pm Never understood why we ditched Sir Clive Woodward, a brilliant rugby coach, who won us the Rugby World Cup and replaced him with twice losing one

Re: 2022 Six Nations
Didn't he (CW) want a big overhaul of English rugby...but was told to do one as he'd just won us the WC so no need? Something like that anwaydasnutnock3 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 06, 2022 2:22 pm Had to deal with the squad rebuild after 03, which was always going to be a hard task, then went off to manage the Lions.

Re: 2022 Six Nations
Wouldn’t be a shock, would it. RFU not exactly renowned for making good decisions.

Re: 2022 Six Nations
There wasn't really any choice but to show Jones the door.
Give someone a contract till after the World Cup and then see who's available.

Re: 2022 Six Nations
Feel its the right call but can't say I'm massively inspired by his replacement. Should have been quick and got Gatland in.
