Robinson says team ignored coaching orders in Irish defeat

England head coach Andy Robinson has claimed that his players ignored direct coaching orders in England’s 28-24 defeat to Ireland.

Responding to media and fan criticism over England’s lack of creativity, Robinson took the unusual step of publicly rebuking his team.

The England chief is under huge pressure after his team finished fourth after another mediocre Six Nations campaign. In a press conference, held at Twickenham on Monday evening, he revealed that his players had ‘clearly failed’ to implement the game plan he and his assistants had developed.

‘I unmistakably told our players to pass, run into someone, recycle, pass, run into someone, recycle, pass twice and then run into someone,’ said the former England flanker. ‘If we got it back again we were to pass it and look for someone to run into. In other words, pass, bash, pass, bash, pass, pass, bash, pass, bash, etc. However, we clearly went, pass, pass, bash, pass, pass, bash, pass, bash. That, you can see, is a totally different sequence of passing and bashing. I can’t help it if the players are failing to implement the tactical orders we have worked on.’
