Decorated defence guru Shaun Edwards says his offer to work for England at the forthcoming World Cup was turned down by head coach Steve Borthwick.
Shaun Edwards revealed that England head coach Steve Borthwick turned down his offer to join the coaching staff for the upcoming Rugby World Cup. Edwards, who left his role with France earlier this year, offered to assist in any capacity, but Borthwick chose to keep his existing backroom team intact.
