England became the first hosts to fail to reach the knockout stages after losing to Wales and Australia.

“It’s one kick”, Gatland added”.

So says Danny Care, who makes his Rugby World Cup debut on Saturday when England finish their failed campaign with a meaningless match against Uruguay. To me that’s more important than the rugby.

“We all know in these positions it is a tough job and it’s nice to get that support. We all understand the pressures of the professional sport and what you have to deal with”.

I think Stuart Lancaster has no alternative but to resign after our final match this Saturday against Uruguay.

A win for the Wallabies, though, and Wales will find themselves facing twice world champions South Africa in the last eight next week.

“It is easy to say with hindsight, but maybe if George had got more game time it might have been a different story”. “That’s the way it’s always been and I think over the last few years we’ve been pretty successful in the evolution of our attack”.

“However, at this moment in time, Northampton Saints is my priority and we have a massive job ahead this season”. Survival and having the opportunity to learn from those experiences is key.

“For 70 minutes against Wales we were in charge (England led by 10 points on three occasions) and we lost the game”. “I have no problem with the reviews; I’ve conducted them myself in age-grade teams – 18s, 20s, Saxons – and after every tournament or Six Nations I’ve had there has been a review”.

But Ford said: “We’ve said “Come back to Bath, carry on playing well”.

“We have the odd bit of contact with them by text but not too much. For me it’s about getting on with the day job and I’ve got enough to be thinking about to be honest”. He has trained well there and looks sharp. Everything’s in place. The ambition, the facilities, the team I have around me, the coaches, and I’ve re-signed players on the basis that I am selling them a vision for the next four years.

“What he did with Leinster, putting structure and discipline in, and he was incredibly successful”. Stuart has fronted into the defeat, of course the rest of the management team have addressed the press as well however Stuart has taken, by far, the lions share of the hit.

“The ideal scenario is that it is done privately and confidentially and the results are then made public, but that might be quite hard I think”.
