Marcus Smith looks set for an extended stay as England’s full-back, with skills coach Kevin Sinfield claiming it would be “a wasted opportunity” to turn back now.
After eight Tests in a row at fly-half, Smith was switched to number 15 for the Guinness Six Nations games against France and Scotland – both of which ended in dramatic one-point victories.
