French rugby boss backs under-fire coaching staff

French rugby chief Pierre Camou has given his backing to Les Bleus’ under-fire coaching set-up following the team’s 34-10 thrashing by England in the RBS 6 Nations at the weekend.

Head coach Marc Lievremont, as well as his assistants Didier Retiere and Emile Ntamack, have come in for as much criticism as their players after France’s drubbing at Twickenham on Sunday.
