Farrell needs to take centre stage, warns Davies

JONATHAN DAVIES agrees with England’s coaching staff that rugby league convert Andy Farrell’s best position in the 15-man code is inside centre.

Former Great Britain skipper Farrell is being played at blindside flanker by his club Saracens, and England will stage further confidential discussions with the London club today in an attempt to thrash out his most effective role.

Former Wales rugby union star Davies, who switched codes to play for Widnes and Warrington before returning to union in 1995, feels England are in the right in this debate.
