The Harlequins scrum-half has been an automatic starter for his club for most of his career but when it comes to internationals it is a different story
Danny Care has announced his retirement from international rugby
Care was suited to this sharpening of the senses, because if you had to be picky and find a weakness in the game of a man who on Monday night retired from internationals with 101 England Tests to his name, it was to very occasionally stray off-script and slip from the peak of performance which, at its best, put him in the top bracket of No 9s worldwide.
Care had been selected solidly for three seasons by Jones from the Australian’s hiring by England for the 2016 Six Nations – in which Care started the Grand Slam-clinching win in France, and had what he calls his “greatest moment in an England shirt”, scoring a sniping try he had cooked up with Jones, spotting lazy defenders on the blind side – through to the summer of 2018.
In the end, Jones took only Youngs and Willi Heinz to the 2019 World Cup, and had to call Ben Spencer for the final when Heinz was injured. All very strange.
