Reddan wary of focused England

Eoin Reddan has spent enough time playing with and against English players to recognise a sea change in their attitudes on and off the field.

And from an Irish point of view he preferred it when the men in white were losing the run of themselves.

The Leinster scrum-half was a Wasps player when he first played against England in the 2008 Six Nations and is certain that the current regime heading to Dublin on Sunday, under Stuart Lancaster’s command since December 2011, is a very different proposition to set-ups of the previous 10 years.
