Dallaglio: lack of coaching experience should rule out Johnson

LAWRENCE DALLAGLIO has warned Twickenham officials not to make a panic appointment and hand World Cup-winning skipper Martin Johnson the vacant England coach’s role.

The Wasps number eight believes Johnson’s lack of coaching experience should rule the former Leicester lock out of the running to replace Andy Robinson.

Dallaglio, who returned from his self-imposed international exile in January, is convinced RFU chief executive Francis Baron should opt for experience and appoint Bristol’s Richard Hill or Wasps’ Shaun Edwards to form their new-look coaching staff.
