NEW England captain Martin Corry insists coach Andy Robinson is on the brink of turning the reigning world champions into winners again.
With Jason Robinson out injured, coach Robinson opted for Leicester number eight Corry to skipper England for next Saturday's RBS Six Nations match against Italy at Twickenham.
Corry is adamant he will merely continue what he perceives to be the good work that has so far been carried out by the two Robinsons as England continue to rebuild in the wake of what has been a turbulent time for the squad since winning the World Cup.
Although England have started this Six Nations campaign with defeats to Wales, France and Ireland, Corry said: "I think he (Andy Robinson) is doing really well.
"He has had a hard time in terms of injuries, but the mood in the camp is excellent, and it is a camp everyone is honoured and happy to be a part of.
"The only problem is due to the massive shake-up and the changes, the little things that turn close losses into victories aren't quite there yet. But I'm positive in a short space of time that will come.
"With everything that has been going on, I think Jason Robinson has done a fantastic job instilling a great team spirit into the squad, and I've every confidence in what Andy and the rest of the coaches are doing behind the scenes.
"I'll just be looking to make sure everything keeps moving in the same direction."
Meanwhile, Ben Cohen fractured a cheekbone rather than his jaw in Saturday's Tsunami Aid match in which the Northern Hemisphere lost 54-19 to the Southern Hemisphere at Twickenham.
The England and Northampton winger is now waiting to discover how long he will be out of action.
It was initially thought that the injury was to his jaw, but the Northern Hemisphere press officer Louisa Cheetham confirmed otherwise.
