RFU is right to take its time

Former England hooker Brian Moore believes the Rugby Football Union are right to take their time over the appointment of the next England coach. Read his thoughts in the Daily Telegraph.

"After the carnage of the past few months there was every chance that the Rugby Football Union would continue to make bad decisions and indulge in yet another bout of internecine warfare.

"That it appears not to have done so proves that there are some sensible people left at Twickenham and those with the interests of English rugby at heart will pray that this is the point at which the lessons of the past have been learnt.

"There are still very difficult decisions to be made about how the union is governed and how the competing interests of amateur and professional rugby can be accommodated so that the whole game can start to move on.

"Of all the decisions those pertaining to this issue will, ultimately, prove to be by far the most important; even the appointment of the new head coach is secondary to getting the administration of the game right."
