...bit of a crisis of confidence in English rugby apparently with an Aussie coach and now NZ born Dylan Hartley tipped to take over the captaincy role...
Lock Joe Launchbury was originally the bookmakers' favourite to take over from Robshaw, who is still in the frame to play flank, but it is thought Jones wants a more abrasive character to lead the way for England..
...yea seems bizarre to say the least...cue the music - 'and along came Jones'...but the new coach is saying he's giving everyone a clean slate...they say you give the bad kids in yr class a bit of responsibility and you see a change...the Canes are doing the same by making the hot headed Coles captain aren't they? - don't think it was a success when Baboon Bismark was made captain though so who knows ...it's only speculation at this stage that Hartley will even be captain..
