LONDON (Reuters) - Northampton coach Chris Boyd has moved to allay Wales fans' fears over the fitness of Dan Biggar ahead of next week's Six Nations clash with England after he was taken off less than 20 minutes into the Saints' win over Sale on Saturday.

Biggar, who kicked four penalties when Wales beat Italy last week, lasted only 19 minutes at Franklin's Gardens before limping off in Northampton's 67-17 victory.
