Ellis Genge admits he’s finding it tougher with age to switch back from the intensity of international rugby to everyday life. Having spent the summer with the British and Irish Lions, Genge returns to captain England in the Autumn Internationals against Fiji at Twickenham.
He says the transition between professional commitments and personal routine is increasingly difficult, and that settling back into normality after a prolonged, high-pressure tour takes time. Despite that, he will lead the England side as they prepare for the challenge posed by Fiji at Twickenham.
