Stuart Lancaster wants England fans to provide final push

Stuart Lancaster has urged Twickenham to will England to victory tomorrow evening as he prepares to order his RBS 6 Nations title hopefuls to carry the game to France.

Lancaster believes the noisy support of a sold-out 82,000 home crowd will have a critical role to play in edging out rivals Ireland and Wales for Championship glory on a nerve-jangling final day of staggered kick-offs.

England are favourites to lift a first piece of silverware under Lancaster and their head coach refuses to view the match through the prism of the looming World Cup on these shores.
