Former England international Luther Burrell is bracing for twin Irish challenges this weekend, and while he hopes to merely complete one of them with body unbroken, he fancies England’s Six Nations title challenge to re-assemble in Twickenham. The former England midfielder, who won one of his 15 caps when helping his country end Ireland’s title hopes in 2014, will feature in Friday’s annual legends clash in aid of Lewis Moody at the Twickenham Stoop (kick-off 7.30pm), before accompanying fellow veterans across the road for the following day’s decisive championship tie.
