LONDON (Reuters) - England assistant coach Andy Farrell and winger Jonny May have refuted former captain Will Carling's assertion that England players were treated as "schoolboys" in Stuart Lancaster's "classroom orientated environment".
Carling was scathing of captain Chris Robshaw's decision to go for an attacking lineout minutes from the end of their 28-25 Rugby World Cup defeat by Wales on Saturday instead of giving Owen Farrell the chance to kick an albeit difficult penalty from close to the touchline and draw the game.
