Wigan RUFC are celebrating this week after director Frank Morgan received national recognition for his contributions to rugby at the Crabbie’s National Rugby Awards.

Wigan RFC are celebrating after claiming the best Youth and Mini Section of the Year at Wednesday’s Crabbie’s National Rugby Awards at Twickenham.

Littleborough Rugby Club has been given a glowing endorsement by England flanker Chris Robshaw after being nominated for the Pitchero Rugby Club of the Year at September’s National Rugby Awards.

Chris Robshaw is confident the future looks bright for England under new head coach Eddie Jones, particularly with Sale Sharks’ Josh Beaumont in line to earn his first full cap during the Six Nations.

Eddie Jones officially starts his job as England head coach on Tuesday and his first order of business should be to give Joe Launchbury the captaincy – according to Lewis Moody.

Chris Robshaw should remain as England’s openside flanker for next year’s Six Nations but only because there are so few other options in the Premiership – that’s according to World Cup winner Neil Back.

England’s insipid early exit from their Rugby World Cup is inevitably going to be the catalyst for endless recrimination.

Rarely could a player with such overwhelmingly admirable qualities have faced such a difficult time endearing himself to his nation as Chris Robshaw.

Club development officer Paul Bailey admitted he had to pinch himself in amazement after Heaton Moor walked away with a top prize at the inaugural National Rugby Awards at Twickenham.

England World Cup winner Neil Back is convinced the uncertainty surrounding boss Stuart Lancaster’s starting XV will come back to haunt him this autumn.

Chris Robshaw will lead Stuart Lancaster’s England out at Twickenham on Friday September 18 to start arguably the biggest tournament of his career after getting to grips with the great and the good of the sport’s grassroots heroes at the first ever National Rugby Awards.
