STEVE BORTHWICK has urged his England side to get shot of their plucky losers' tag and finally get a big win over the line.
The head coach admitted his players missed a golden opportunity to make history when they slipped up twice in New Zealand in the summer after having their noses in front.
Add in the agonising defeat to France in the Six Nations and Borthwick's crew have lost their last three Tests against major nations by a total of 10 points.
And the boss has called for an end to the near-misses starting with a revenge mission against the Kiwis at Twickenham a week on Saturday.
