England Searching for Redemption
With two games remaining in the Autumn Nations Series, England are desperate for a victory after back-to-back, nail-biting defeats at Twickenham.
Two Defeats to Start
Last weekend, England fell to a 42-37 defeat against Australia. The game was a thriller, featuring five tries from both sides. England’s scores came courtesy of Chandler Cunningham-South (2), Ollie Sleightholme (2), and Maro Itoje. However, Max Jorgensen’s last-gasp try secured a dramatic win for the Wallabies.
Ford on the Bench: Will He Prove the Doubters Wrong?
Despite heavy criticism from pundits like Andy Goode, George Ford is expected to stay on the bench for this one, despite his lacklustre performances in the losses to New Zealand and Australia. Will he be able to make an impact off the bench?
Leaked England Line-Up:
Furbank, Steward, Lawrence, Slade, Freeman, Smith, Spencer; Genge, George, Stuart, Itoje, Martin, Cunningham-South, Underhill, Earl.
Can England turn things around and finally get a win over South Africa? It’s going to be a big night at Twickenham!
