England must 'step up' against Wallabies
The Straits Times|November 09, 2024
Tom Curry insists England's rugby players must take responsibility for their repeated failure to close out winning positions and adopt a "no excuses" approach, as they look to revive their fortunes against Australia at Twickenham on Nov 9.
England must 'step up' against Wallabies

England have lost their last three Tests - all against New Zealand after squandering an advantage in the final quarter. They also fell short against France in their last match of the Six Nations and they now head into the Wallabies clash having won just four of their nine Tests in 2024.

Last weekend they were eight points up late on against the All Blacks, only to suffer a 24-22 loss at Twickenham.

England coach Steve Borthwick was criticised for being overly cautious in taking off half-backs Ben Spencer and Marcus Smith with his side on top, but Curry said the players, not the staff, were to blame.
