Hansen on England threat

KYOTO. — New Zealand coach Steve Hansen warned England they could struggle to get out of a treacherous group for the second straight Rugby World Cup. Hansen appeared to play down English hopes of knocking the All Blacks off their perch as rugby’s top side, after the 2003 champions drew France and Argentina among their pool rivals in 2019. “Any one of those top eight teams is going to be tough,” Hansen told reporters after the title-holders were bracketed with South Africa and Italy in Pool B at Wednesday’s draw in Kyoto.“England are going to be a force, but they’re in a really strong pool.” — AFP.
