Stuart Lancaster was appointed England Rugby Head Coach until the end of the 2015 Rugby World Cup, on March 29 this year. He has since guided England to second place in the 2012 RBS 6 Nations, with four wins from five games and to the historic achievement of three away victories for the first time. A tough Summer Tour of South Africa followed, and after defeat in the first two tests England battled to a draw in the third, settling up a tantalising return match in the 2012 QBE Internationals.
