England should beware of ruthless Borthwick

STONE COLD STEVE

ENGLAND head coach Steve Borthwick is not afraid to rip things up and start again, his misfiring outfit have been warned. 

Borthwick’s assistant coach Richard Wigglesworth saw the boss’ hard edge at club level when he was axed and then reinstated in the space of seven days.

In Leicester’s title-winning season of 2022 scrum-half Wigglesworth was ousted from the match-day 23 entirely for the Premiership semi-final against Northampton.

A week later he was back in favour for the Twickenham showpiece, when Tigers beat Saracens 15-12, starting ahead of Ben Youngs with Jack van Poortvliet the scapegoat.

Borthwick’s squad meet this morning in York to debrief Saturday’s 30-21 Calcutta Cup defeat to Scotland.
