England Rugby manager Eddie Jones and his squad have paid tribute to Captain Sir Tom Moore.

The 100-year-old veteran died from COVID-19 earlier this week.

Captain Tom rose to prominence as he raised over £30 million for the NHS last year walking up and down his garden before his 100th birthday.

Eddie Jones called Captain Tom 'a great inspiration for the whole community'.

You can watch the full video above.

England Rugby are once again staying at The Lensbury ahead of the Six Nations Tournament.

The prestigious Teddington hotel and leisure club hosted the team last Autumn for the international games.

England start their campaign off against Scotland at Twickenham this Saturday - but no fans will be in attendance.
