Much has been written on RFU chief executive Ian Ritchie's selection for the panel to conduct the review. As a stakeholder in the shirt, I was staggered. Ritchie has overseen England's worst World Cup ever and over the last four years has got far too close to the team for a man with zero rugby experience or knowledge, culminating in awarding six-year contracts to Stuart Lancaster and his coaching team. He should not be allowed anywhere near the review, let alone leading it and choosing the panel.
