🏉 Exciting times for England Rugby! Head coach Steve Borthwick has not only recalled George Ford for the upcoming clash with the All Blacks but is also tipping the seasoned fly-half as a future head coach for England! 🌟
Ford, set for his 104th cap, will take the field as the fly-half this Saturday, backed by Borthwick for his big-game savvy. At 32, Ford showed his strategic brilliance in England’s recent win against Australia and has a wealth of experience from tight matches to bring to the table. Borthwick praised Ford’s calmness and leadership, saying, “I wouldn’t be surprised if he becomes England coach one day.”
This weekend, Ford steps into the pivotal No.10 role as England gears up for a crucial match against the formidable All Blacks. With Ford’s strategic mind at the helm, Borthwick is hopeful for a confident performance without relying on last-minute miracles.
But that’s not all! Borthwick has shuffled the squad, making seven changes, including some big names like Tom Roebuck and Alex Coles stepping up due to injuries. The team is also bolstered by the return of key players such as Freddie Steward and Sam Underhill.
The bench is stacked with talents, ready to unleash their power in the final stages, aiming to turn the tide in England’s favour. As Borthwick puts it, these encounters often come down to the wire, and having experienced heads ready to finish strong is a significant advantage.
