- Eddie Jones’s squad at Burton preparing for Six Nations defence
- ‘It’s tough … you want that face-to-face connection with people’
Billy Vunipola has revealed how David Beckham is his closest companion at England’s Six Nations training camp with strict Covid-19 protocols preventing Eddie Jones’s squad from socialising indoors.
England convened at their footballing counterparts’ headquarters in Burton on Wednesday to begin their Six Nations preparations with the players having to eat at their own tables and unable to mix in each other’s hotel rooms as part of a series of measures designed to reduce the risk of Covid-19 transmission.
