England have announced that Andrew Strawbridge will join Steve Borthwick’s staff on a full-time basis following his consultancy role during the Guinness Six Nations this year.

The 59-year-old worked with England for the first four weeks of the 2024 Championship, arriving shortly after helping the All Blacks earn a silver medal at the World Cup last year, where he worked as a skills coach under Ian Foster. He has now been named as an assistant coach and coaching advisor ahead of England’s tour of Japan and New Zealand later this year.

The Kiwi’s specific focus will be on the attacking contact area- a facet of the game which England markedly improved upon from the World Cup last year.

      “Andrew made a huge impression during the time he spent with us at this year’s Six Nations,” said Borthwick.

      “From the moment he walked into the environment, I was hugely impressed with his attention to detail, the clarity of his coaching philosophy and the different perspectives he has on the game.

      “His extensive coaching experience in Super Rugby and the international arena, as well as his expertise in player development, complements our existing coaching group well.

      “I’m excited that he’ll back with us as we prepare for the summer Tour to Japan and New Zealand.”

      Strawbridge added: “My brief stint with England at the front end of the Six Nations was a nourishing experience and I was impressed with the desire of the group to grow and compete.

      “I am immensely proud to be involved in the England coaching group and look forward to playing a part in helping the team achieve its goals.

      “I really appreciate the opportunity Steve has afforded me to contribute.”

      England’s next match will be against Japan on June 22 in Tokyo before a two-Test series against the All Blacks in July.

      Leinster cleanse palette with record URC scoreline against Zebre

      My name is Solenn Bonnet, and I am a single mother navigating the challenges of raising my two-year-old child while trying to make ends meet. I came across a trading platform that promised astonishing daily profits of 18%. The allure of such a high return on investment was too tempting to resist, and I found myself drawn into cryptocurrency trading. Excited by the prospect of financial freedom, I invested a significant amount of my savings, totaling over 5.7 BTC. However, what started as a hopeful venture quickly turned into a nightmare. The platform was a scam, and I lost everything I had invested. The emotional toll of this loss was immense; I felt devastated and helpless, struggling to provide for my child and keep up with my bills. In my desperate attempt to recover my funds, I sought help from various recovery experts. Unfortunately, I encountered numerous fraudulent individuals who claimed they could help me retrieve my lost money. Each time I reached out, I was met with disappointment and further scams, which only deepened my despair. Last year was one of the most challenging periods of my life, filled with anxiety and uncertainty about my financial future. Feeling overwhelmed and at a loss, I confided in a close friend from church about my situation. She listened compassionately and shared her own experiences with financial difficulties. Understanding my plight, she introduced me to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, a group of skilled hackers known for their expertise in recovering lost funds. Skeptical yet hopeful, I decided to reach out to them as a last resort. Their services came at a higher cost, but my friend generously offered to help me with a partial payment. I was amazed by how quickly they responded and began the recovery process. Their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire ordeal. To my relief, they successfully recovered more than I had lost to those heartless scammers. This was truly transformative, and I felt a sense of relief and gratitude that I hadn’t felt in a long time. I strongly encourage anyone who has faced similar challenges or fallen victim to scams to reach out to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. If you’ve invested in a fraudulent platform like I did, they are highly capable of helping you reclaim your hard-earned money. Don’t lose hope; there is a way to recover what you’ve lost.
