Well after all the furore and assurance from the England’s management it seems the rugby players are not so keen to co-operate with the local authorities after all.

The latest development in the England Rugby Team’s alleged sex scandal is that the 4 players that have been named have declined to talk to the New Zealand police.

The local police force has a following statement “The players have advised police — via legal representation this morning — that they are declining to be interviewed by police on the matter at this stage.»

The English team management meanwhile is standing by their players “The players continue to deny the allegations and have the full support of the England management, coaches and players.»
