Ex-England player fills assistant coach role in capital
Former Wasps and England hooker Phil Greening has joined London Welsh as assistant coach.
The 33-year-old, who filled a similar role with the England Sevens team, has been working with the Dragons on a consultancy basis since February and has now agreed to a full-time post.
Greening won 24 England caps in a playing career which included the 1999 World Cup and the 2001 Lions tour to Australia.
He was forced to retire in October 2005 due to a foot injury sustained in Wasps' Guinness Premiership final victory over Leicester.
"I'm delighted to have the opportunity to work with head coach Danny Wilson," he said. "He is a very talented young coach and we share the same desire and mindset.
"It will be a great learning curve for me to work along side him. I'm really excited to be part of a club that is growing and is hugely ambitious for the future.
"It's also a club where I can bring my own style, along with lessons and styles I have been fortunate to learn from working with great players and coaches, such as Clive Woodward, Warren Gatland, Sean Edwards, John Mitchell and Mike Friday."
