Freeman believes in England's Six Nations title hopes despite fans' boos
Briefly

England rugby player Tommy Freeman acknowledged fans' frustrations during their recent scrappy win against Scotland, describing the mixed emotions after their recovery following four straight defeats. With two remaining matches in the Six Nations, England sits third in the table and is hopeful about their chances, thanks in part to upcoming favorable fixtures. Coach Steve Borthwick faces potential player absences but is aiming for improvement despite criticism of England's playing style. Freeman advocates for their tactical kicking strategy but recognizes its shortcomings in satisfying the fanbase.
Our strategy is either to go long and find some grass and keep them down in that end, and then hopefully get the ball even further up or off transition, he said.
Will Carling described England's victory as very ugly while the World Cup winner Will Greenwood said they simply play no rugby.
