Campese fires another salvo at Woodward

EX-AUSTRALIAN winger and serial Pommie-basher David Campese has launched another broadside at England coach Clive Woodward, saying he will not still be coaching the Red Rose side in 2007 because his players will become “sick of him”.

World record try scorer Campese, who famously walked down Oxford Street with a sandwich board which said “I admit the best team won” after betting that England would not win the World Cup last year, has something of a hate-hate relationship with the England supremo.

In his latest outburst the Aussie, who scored the try which beat England in the 1991 World Cup Final, said: “I don’t think Clive Woodward will be there in 2007 because the players will get sick of him. It’s human nature.”

He criticised Woodward for his reaction to the defeat to Ireland three weeks ago, and said England’s personnel and style would have to change if they are to retain the World Cup in four years’ time.
