Writing in the Daily Mail, Peter Jackson talks to Harlequins scrum-half Danny Care who is poised to be complete a remarkable turnaround in fortunes.
"A few months ago, it seemed as if the entire English rugby establishment was ready to denounce the 23-year-old as a cartoon villain in the Dick Dastardly mould.
His heinous crime was committed at Croke Park as England subsided to an agonising one-point Six Nations defeat to eventual Grand Slam winners Ireland.
"Care's rash, off-the-ball shove sent Marcus Horan sprawling, earned him a yellow card and tipped Martin Johnson into a rage. Yet he claims that, behind the scenes, the England manager was supportive once he had delivered a post-match apology.
"...Care has taken stock of that incident and the one in Dublin, but he is not about to tone down his act."
