England rugby coach ponders moving Earl to centre

October 30, 2025

England coach Steve Borthwick is pondering playing Ben Earl at inside centre during the upcoming Autumn Nations Series as he looks to bolster the team’s positional depth and flexibility ahead of the 2027 Rugby World Cup.

Earl has been selected in his regular No 8 spot for England's series opener against Australia at Twickenham on Saturday, with Guy Pepper at blindside flanker and rising star Henry Pollock on the bench.

But all three loose forwards could find themselves with back-line roles in subsequent November internationals at home to Fiji, New Zealand and Argentina.
