Lancaster to focus on backline after All Black mauling

New Zealand 28 England 27

Half-backs Owen Farrell and Danny Care and centre pairing Billy Twelvetrees and Luther Burrell picked up knocks in Saturday’s series-deciding 28-27 defeat in Dunedin.

Farrell (knee), Care (shoulder), Twelvetrees (ankle) and Burrell (ankle) effectively have until Tuesday, when the team is decided, to prove their readiness to face the All Blacks.
