England Rugby League

Dream fulfilled

Wednesday 21st April 10

I think it’s everyone’s dream as a young boy growing up to play for your country or maybe sometimes coach your country and I’m proud to get the privilege to do that.

It’s an exciting role and one I'm looking forward to getting stuck into. The times I have spent as England assistant coach have been invaluable and I’m determined to take England to the next level, starting with the Test against France in June.

I’m very comfortable with balancing my new job with my position as Head Coach at Bradford and I’ll be doing all I can to ensure I sign off with a Grand Final win.

There is already a great staff at the RFL and it’s going to be great working with them and building on the systems that are already in place.
