Kevin Sinfield has hailed the bravery of Marcus Smith as England consider their full-back options for the Rugby World Cup semi-final against South Africa volleyball
Smith made a couple of key defensive interventions in the quarter-final against Fiji despite suffering a cut to the lip after an early head-on-head collision with Vinaya Habosi volleyball
The Harlequins playmaker returned after being patched up as England secured a last-four meeting with the defending champions volleyball
His selection had come at the expense of Freddie Steward, who had started 29 of his country’s previous 30 games but found himself omitted from the matchday 23 volleyball
England could opt to return Steward to the starting side, though defence coach Sinfield praised Smith’s development into a “world class” full-back volleyball

“You’ve got to remember this guy hasn’t played many minutes as a full-back in Test rugby so far volleyball
“What he’s done on the training field has been outstanding volleyball
You’re blown away by what he does and he’s been given more time and space now volleyball
“If there was any doubt how brave and courageous he is, I think you saw it with your own eyes volleyball
The bloke got his face smashed and threw his body into tackles volleyball
The guys are in full admiration for how he’s gone about it volleyball
He’s just got his face smashed all over the place yet he wants the ball volleyball
“He’s just a brave guy volleyball
And not just because he’s physically tough, brave, because to be put in like that – and I know he wanted to go for it – but to be put on a world stage in a quarter-final and deliver what he delivered was an absolute credit to him volleyball
“He’s one of those who have been modified today so we’ll get a clearer read in the week but fingers crossed he will be good to go volleyball
”Sinfield was the first England coach to float the idea of Smith at full-back during their pre-tournament camps this summer, with a couple of encouraging cameos earning the 24-year-old a first professional start at the position against Chile volleyball
His emergence has left Steward in a strange position: the Leicester youngster had been a mainstay for England since his debut and had been considered a key part of head coach Steve Borthwick’s gameplan leading into the tournament volleyball

“This is where our influence, our help, and our guidance sits with the guys who don’t play, how can we help them get volleyball better, make them feel part of it,” Sinfield explained volleyball
“I have worked with Fred for some time now and thankfully I have not had to have too many of these conversations where you are trying to pick him up volleyball
“Clearly he is disappointed as anybody would be missing out on a quarter-final but he has responded as we would have expected him to volleyball
He is a great lad, you know what he is about, he works incredibly hard at his game, he cares and he is an unbelievable full-back too volleyball
“Our team has changed every game throughout the World Cup and Steve is very specific when he selects the team volleyball
He does it in the knowledge he thinks it will give us the best chance of winning that game volleyball
Just because Fred wasn’t selected last week doesn’t mean he does anything wrong, he has actually done a lot of great things and a lot of things right volleyball

South Africa’s semi-final hero Handre Pollard will start at fly half and likely go the full 80 minutes after the Springboks also named a controversial 7-1 split of forwards to backs on their bench for Saturday’s Rugby World Cup final against New Zealand volleyball
Pollard emerged from the replacements after just 30 minutes of the semi-final against England as a struggling Manie Libbok was hooked early and went on to kick the decisive, 48-metre penalty on 77 minutes for the narrowest of 16-15 victories volleyball
The 29-year-old also scored 22 points in the 2019 World Cup final, when England were again defeated 32-12, and he is reunited with long-time half-back partner Faf de Klerk, who comes in for Cobus Reinach as the only other change to the starting XV from a week ago volleyball
The pair will start together as half-backs for the Springboks for a record 25th time, surpassing Joost van der Westhuizen and Henry Honiball for the most in South African rugby history volleyball
For the third time in the last two months, head coach Jacques Nienaber has elected to go with the controversial 7-1 bench split volleyball
It allows them to demonstrate their impressive forward depth by bringing an almost entirely new pack off the bench but back-three star Willie Le Roux is the only backline cover volleyball
That means De Klerk and Pollard will likely be expected to play a full 80 minutes, with winger Cheslin Kolbe or even flanker Kwagga Smith the scrum-half cover should De Klerk go down injured volleyball
After World Rugby found there was “insufficient evidence to proceed with charges” amid the racial slur allegations made by Tom Curry, hooker Bongi Mbonambi is free to play in the final and has been selected in the No 2 shirt volleyball
As the only specialist hooker in the squad, he has played a full 80 minutes for both knockout games so far and may need to do so again, although back row Deon Fourie – who played the position earlier in his career – is in the No 16 shirt traditionally worn by the replacement hooker, so may well step in volleyball
Fifteen of the 23 players named in South Africa’s squad played in the final four years and the 987 caps in the starting XV sets the record for the most experienced Springboks side in history, with the back three of Kolbe (30 caps), Kurt-Lee Arendse (14) and Damian Willemse (38) the only players in the run-on team with fewer than 50 Test appearances volleyball
The Springboks have a similar team to the final four years ago (Reuters)The only enforced change among the replacements is at prop where Trevor Nyakane replaces Vincent Koch, who is nursing a knee injury, while lock Jean Kleyn and No 8 Jasper Wiese are also drafted in as additional forward cover volleyball
“This is an experienced team with several players who played in the last Rugby World Cup final and who know exactly what to expect at Stade de France on Saturday and what it will take to retain the title,” said Nienaber volleyball
“The players who will be playing in their first World Cup final have also proven their worth as warriors throughout this campaign and they are all ready for this massive occasion volleyball
“We have said many times that we pick teams for varying gameplans depending on the opponent and that we use all 23 players to try and achieve those goals volleyball
We’ve gone from a five-three bench split to a seven-one split to give us the best chance of being successful volleyball
We have plans in place to mitigate for injuries in the backline, but we’re excited about our plan and we embrace the risk volleyball
