“10/10” – Every home nations BEST and WORST players in their series decider

ENGLAND

BEST PLAYER: Courtney Lawes

Telegraph – 9/10: “Quality turnover from the England captain to win a penalty and overall just relentlessly physical, helping to disrupt Australia’s mauls and rucks. A late turnover when Australia were threatening was vital.”

Rugby Pass – 9/10: “Simply inspirational – England’s skipper won penalties over the ball, turnovers in mauls and plenty of lineout ball in addition to leading the tackle count with 15.”

WORST PLAYER: Danny Care

Telegraph 4/10: “Charged down 20 seconds in by Frost but box-kicking improved. Koroibete thundered through him on one run and after 37 minutes Eddie Jones had enough, hooking him with no injury.”

Inews 4/10: “Brutally hooked after 36 minutes for Jack van Poortvliet but it was hard to argue with Jones’ reasoning given the veteran’s poor first half, when he had his first box kick charged down, looked too eager to kick away and was flattened by Koroibete.”

Rugby Pass 5.5/10: “Unceremoniously hooked by Jones shortly before the break after a mixed display in which he was unable to conjure much from some scrappy possession.”

Mail Online 3/10: “Could be his last game in an England shirt after having kick charged down and being replaced on 37 minutes.”
