It's jobs for the boys. Conor and his lackeys impress me less and less with each move. Nice guy and all that, but he's about as useful as tits on a fish!

If he's on a fixed term contract then it's potentially the only way to move him out of day to day coaching without it being constructive dismissal.

That said I’m delighted to have Sorrell!

But I’d have still broken the mould and got Fletch and the gang back!

The former Gloucester Rugby, Harlequins and London Irish fly-half will now work on further aligning the England U17 to U20 programmes whilst liaising closely with Steve Borthwick’s England men’s team and Prem Rugby clubs on players of national interest who have graduated from the age-group national teams in recent years. Mapletoft will also lead the England Men’s A side as head coach, who kick-off their season against the All Blacks XV at the Recreation Ground on Saturday 8th November.

Bloody hell.

Mind, I'll take it if the trade-off is having Blackett coaching for England.
