Graham Henry: England are a shambles

Former New Zealand coach Graham Henry has reportedly described England as a "shambles" while answering questions at a fundraising event in Auckland.

Henry, who is believed to have made the comments tongue-in-cheek, also said that the team would be likely to "self-destruct and start again".

The 65-year-old went on to claim that the England players were "smarmy" and "the height of arrogance", according to the Guardian.

Henry, who stepped down from the All Blacks following their 2011 World Cup win, will start a one-year role with the Argentine Rugby Union later this month.
