Nick Easter, England and Harlequins Number 8, a QBE ambassador:
"The calibre of opposition at the 2012 QBE Internationals sets up some huge games against very tough sides. You’ve got to beat the best if you want to be the best and that is what England aspires to be. These tests are a massive challenge especially with New Zealand winning the World Cup. The southern hemisphere has set the benchmark over the years and we know that they hold dominance so it is always good to pit yourself against them. The games always have plenty of support and it is fantastic to see fans really enjoy themselves at Twickenham. Players and supporters love the northern vs. southern hemisphere rivalry so there is a lot to look forward to."

QBE to Sponsor Autumn Internationals
England Training Day - 7th March 2011
RFU Sponsorship Launch
To launch the sponsorship, a stunning 50m image was projected onto the iconic Lloyd’s Building in the heart of London’s insurance district. A first for the City of London, the projection greeted thousands of commuters as they arrived for work.
The four-year deal with the RFU will bring significant advertising, hospitality and business development opportunities to QBE.
The agreement builds on QBE’s existing rugby sponsorship, following the launch of its partnership with the Guinness Premiership in October 2009.
