England’s Rugby Lineup Unchanged for Autumn Clash Against Australia
England has named an unchanged starting XV for their Autumn Nations Series match against Australia at Allianz Stadium. Fly-half Marcus Smith retains his spot after a strong performance, while Jamie George continues as captain. The midfield sees Henry Slade move to inside centre and Ollie Lawrence shift to outside centre. The bench will feature hooker Luke Cowan-Dickie, who could make his first appearance since November 2022. Head coach Steve Borthwick emphasized the effective partnership between Slade and Lawrence, who have a high frequency of matches together, as they look to break a three-match losing streak.
