Graham Rowntree: 'England must bounce back against Scotland'

Rowntree: 'England must bounce back'

England forwards coach Graham Rowntree has said that England need to bounce back with victory over Scotland, following last week's 19-9 defeat to Ireland.

Ireland lead the Six Nations by two points, but England could still win the competition with victory in their last two matches.

"There is lots we have to put right because the Ireland game was immensely frustrating and disappointing," Rowntree told the Daily Mail.

"I've just got over it, if I'm honest. We had a long week last week pulling it apart.

"We're playing a team at Twickenham who have just lost at home and have a lot to prove themselves. I expect a reaction from us. We have an honest group of lads and we're not satisfied at all with that performance. But we have this week to put it right."

Brad Barritt and Tom Croft will miss the match due to injury.
