Six Nations LIVE: England camp ‘frustrated’ over alarming Steve Borthwick training session | Rugby | Sport
England’s most-capped player Ben Youngs has shared his worries about Steve Borthwick’s faltering attack.
The Red Roses have struggled to create at the Six Nations and Youngs claims that is due to a lack of attention behind the scenes.
“We have wonderful, gifted players who are great at the line and executing,” Youngs said on the podcast.
“They are brilliant. That makes me think that maybe during the week they are not getting enough reps. Maybe the attack isn’t the focus in the week as much as it should be because there is a new defensive system and maybe that is taking a huge amount of priority along with the foundations of a high-kicking game.
“Although they are talking about growing this attack, I am not sure they are getting the reps and the amount of time spent on it to fine-tune it. That’s what I am seeing.
« We look like a team that has only run the strike plays twice in the week and when trying to run it against an opposition trying to stop us, essentially we came unstuck.”
