And winning:

CW: That chimes with me. Although winning was always my ultimate aim with England, I rarely spoke directly about it. You achieved that by getting 85,000 at Twickenham on their feet going nuts at the quality of your players and the excitement of your rugby. If you can create that amount of excitement you must be playing brilliantly and would win regardless! It was chicken and egg.

I thought his remark about taking the wasps coaching job at half the money offered by a super league club was telling too.

Thanks for sharing.

Was disappointing that we missed out on bringing him back before he went to France, but I'm not sure many would change the current coaching set up based on performances over the last 12 months.

Still one day hope for a reunion with him, Worzel and some of the others from that era now in coaching (although the lads over at Gloucester haven't done much to impress yet). But should be grateful for the brilliant work of the guys in charge now.

Who’s have thought Wasps would have an England Head Coach to thank for something!  :P

Can’t decide if the recommendation of Sir CW to Melbourne rebels to take Cipriani was a favour to us or not
