England insist Tom Curry is ready for Friday’s World Cup bronze final as squad and management rally around the flanker caught in a racism storm sports
World Rugby is investigating an allegation made by Curry that he was racially abused by South Africa hooker Bongi Mbonambi in the first half of Saturday’s semi-final defeat sports
Curry claimed to referee Ben O’Keeffe that he was called a “white c***” by Mbonambi and, after a complaint made by the Rugby sports Football Union, audio and video footage is being examined for evidence sports
If the 25-year-old is picked against Argentina on Friday night it will be his 50th cap and attack coach Richard Wigglesworth is confident the alleged incident will not be a disruption as England prepare to sign off their World Cup sports
“Tom is good sports
I know players will have got around him sports
Steve and the management team have been all over it sports
I’m sure he’s getting every bit of support that he needs,” Wigglesworth said sports
“I’m not sure you can ever put yourself in those shoes and know that feeling sports
What I do know is he’s an impressive young man who, if selected on Friday, will pour everything into that England shirt as he has done on the previous 49 occasions sports
“It will be dealt with by World Rugby sports
We get stuck into our prep for Argentina sports
The process is the process and we have no knowledge of how long that will go on for or the outcome, but we have to get ready for Argentina sports
“Every week there is always some sort of thing you could be distracted by sports
It’s international rugby, there’s a lot you could be distracted by sports
You want to be in situations where there are distractions sports
“This distraction is different, but it’s still noise that isn’t about Friday night, our prep and our desire to finish in the right way sports
“World Rugby has been pretty vocal in following up things in the past and they need to do the same again sports
”Tom is good sports
I know players will have got around him sports
Steve and the management team have been all over itRichard WigglesworthWigglesworth’s words were echoed by Ben Earl, England’s player of the World Cup who started the last two matches in the same back row as the Sale openside sports
“Tom’s a brilliant team-mate, a brilliant friend of mine sports
He’s also an incredibly resilient guy,” Earl said sports
“He gives his all for the team and I know he’s going to be doing that this weekend sports
I hope it all gets resolved very quickly sports
”Wigglesworth was unable to shed any light on a report that defence coach Kevin Sinfield will leave England after the World Cup by mutual consent sports
England’s defence has improved markedly during the tournament in France and they only conceded one try to world champions South Africa sports
“There’s nothing that I’ve been aware of from Kevin, so it’s a hard one to comment on because it’s not me who the story is about,” Wigglesworth said sports
“Hopefully there’s not much in it sports
I’m sure that post-World Cup and down the line we’ll find out if there is sports
“He’s a close ally of mine from Leicester sports
We were two guys who lived away from the club so we travelled and stayed over sports
“I spent a lot of time with him, and even more time with him through this whole process sports
“I’m very close to him so I’m probably incredibly biased about what Kev brings but I’m sure the lads in the environment will tell you that he gives absolutely everything sports
“He’s had a big impact on individuals and gives up a lot of his time to help sports
We know he’s that sort of person and he’s done an exceptional job of doing it sports
