    England's rugby union team will spend three days training with Super League Champions Leeds Rhinos in January.

    England coach Andy Robinson will use the cross-code scheme to prepare for their RBS Six Nations opener at Wales' Millennium Stadium on 5 February.

    -- I think it's a very good idea, should certainly improve their speed and tackling.

    Interesting approach.The outcome should be a brutal tackling game
    Although,rush defence against a boot of Henson/Jones will be a nice battle.

    Nevermind the technical aspects of the game, what we're talking about are the physical improvements in speed and tackling due to cross-training and the new routines they'll face.

    Technical play will be interesting - whether this will have a strong influence on Englands style is probably unlikely, albeit quite possible.
