Lancaster to land England job?

Writing for the Daily Mail, Chris Foy believes current interim coach Stuart Lancaster is in pole position to be appointed to the full-time role.

"After Martin Johnson’s post-World Cup, post-leaked reports resignation, Lancaster inherited tension and divisions, low morale and lost values. He has since transformed the mood with a tough stance on discipline, a youthful squad selection and the fostering of a strong spirit — as highlighted at Murrayfield and in Rome.

"His prospects of claiming the head coach job long-term — which had appeared a fanciful notion two months ago — have increased."
