England players plan to sue the mole

English rugby's devastating period of in-fighting and unrest is in danger of being prolonged by a wave of legal action in response to the leaking of highly sensitive World Cup reports. Daily Mail's Chris Foy reports

"The RFU have hired former Scotland Yard detectives to hunt for the mole who handed over the confidential documents. While the union await a report, which is due to reach them in the next week, Sportsmail understands certain individuals whose reputations have been damaged by the leaks are preparing to sue the culprit — if one emerges.

"There is also a possibility that the organisation for whom the leaker worked may be sued.

"Speculation about the identity of the source has been rife in rugby circles in the last week. Many in the game, including those within the England squad, suspect one particular individual, though without firm proof."
