"It's important that all of the England players who take the field on Saturday think clearly and control their emotions on the day and that they display the right attributes. There has been a strong element of competition throughout the squad and an element of uncertainity about their places in the 30 man RWC squad to be announced on Tuesday and that's a good thing."
