England are making adjustments to Tom Curry’s technique around contact in an effort to reduce his concussion risk.

Curry was knocked out while tackling Australia’s Rob Valetini on November 9, sustaining his second significant head injury of the season having also been removed from a club match for Sale in September. It lifts his number of concussions for the last two years to five.
