Steve Borthwick keeps faith by naming unchanged England XV to face Australia
Briefly

"Borthwick's only change to his starting XV is to swap Henry Slade and Ollie Lawrence around in midfield, moving the Exeter Chief to inside centre and handing the Bath man the No13 jersey."
"Against New Zealand, England were eight points ahead in the final quarter for the third match in succession against the All Blacks but they threw away another winning position as Borthwick turned to his bench to close the game out rather than press home the advantage."
"On the bench, Luke Cowan-Dickie has been named as the replacement hooker, getting the nod in place of Theo Dan, and is set for his first England appearance since Eddie Jones's last game in charge in November 2022."
"Facing Australia is always a massive challenge, and we'll work diligently this week to ensure we're physically and tactically prepared to take on the Wallabies."
