Lawrence Dallaglio has called on England to restore “pride and credibility in the shirt” in Saturday’s daunting Six Nations clash in Dublin.
England face world No1-ranked Ireland, who are bidding for a second Grand Slam in five years and are at the height of their powers. Steve Borthwick’s men slumped to a record home defeat last weekend, with a seven-try 53-10 loss to France — and now World Cup-winning No8 Dallaglio has urged England to claw back their reputations at the Aviva Stadium.
