Rugby World Cup-winning coach Sir Clive Woodward has backed Agustin Pichot's bid to challenge Sir Bill Beaumont for the role of the chairman of World Rugby.

Former Argentinian skipper Pichot will challenge Beaumont in next month's election.

Woodward, who masterminded England's only successful World Cup campaign in 2003, used social media to announce his support for the former Pumas halfback.

Woodward joins former Samoan international Seilala Mapusua, who told Newshub that Pichot's vision for the game was far more inclusive than the current regime.

The Pacific Rugby Players board member says they as an association, will always support anyone who is going to make decisions and do things that benefit their players.
