England out of RWC

LONDON. — England coach Stuart Lancaster apologised and admitted his future is uncertain after Australia dumped his side out of the Rugby World Cup with a brilliant performance at Twickenham.

Lancaster and England captain Chris Robshaw apologised to the nation for Saturday’s 33-13 humiliation by the Wallabies.

But the knives were quickly out for the pair as England became the first World Cup hosts to fail to reach the last eight knock-out round.

Asked if he was considering his position after the loss, Lancaster said: “Yeah, obviously I think I’ve got to. It’s not just going to be my decision. The responsibility and accountability lies with me,” added Lancaster, who was given a contract extension last year that took him to 2020 – beyond the next World Cup in Japan. — AFP.
