England head coach Steve Borthwick remains confident in his coaching team despite the recent departures of key staff members Felix Jones and Aled Walters. Jones resigned as defence coach, citing an 'unstable working environment', while Walters transitioned to a similar role with Ireland. Borthwick acknowledged the surprise of their exits but emphasized the stability provided by remaining coaches Richard Wigglesworth, Tom Harrison, and Kevin Sinfield. Joe El-Abd has stepped in as the new defence coach, and Borthwick believes the transition has been 'pretty seamless', ensuring minimal disruption to preparations for the November Tests against top-tier opponents. He expressed admiration for both departed coaches and reassured that the core coaching team is robust and prepared for upcoming challenges. Borthwick's focus remains on the upcoming matches, maintaining a strong belief in the remaining staff's capabilities.
