Veteran scrum-halves of enduring brilliance will go head to head when England and Australia clash in a series decider at Sydney Cricket Ground on Saturday.
Coach Eddie Jones said on Thursday three new faces in England's back line would give his team more attacking options for their must-win second Test against an Australian side that has been forced into five changes.
SYDNEY : England head to Brisbane this weekend to face a Wallabies team on the rise knowing that a fourth straight defeat and a guaranteed series loss could be the beginning of the end for their coach.
To say a big series is looming for both Australia and England is to state the blindingly obvious. The Wallabies are keen to revive their status as heavy hitters in the international game while Eddie Jones is under pressure to demonstrate he still has the golden coaching touch of old. If either side ends up losing 3-0 the inquests threaten to be both lengthy and messy.
England coach Eddie Jones has recalled scrum-half Danny Care and No 8 Billy Vunipola after lengthy absences in an experienced side captained by Courtney Lawes to take on the Wallabies on Saturday in the first of three Tests.
Courtney Lawes has been named as England’s captain for Saturday’s first Test against Australia in Perth, with Eddie Jones favouring the blindside flanker for the role rather than the returning Owen Farrell. Danny Care and Billy Vunipola have also been named to start while Henry Arundell is a surprise inclusion on the bench despite his apprentice status in the squad.
Eddie Jones has turned to Courtney Lawes to lead England for their first Test against Australia ahead of Owen Farrell with veterans Danny Care and Billy Vunipola also returning to the team.
Eddie Jones insists England are ready to hunt down the Wallabies as they prepare for confrontation on and off the pitch during their three-Test tour of Australia.
