REUTERS: England captain Owen Farrell has tweaked his tackling technique in training to avoid getting sent off during the Rugby World Cup, defence coach John Mitchell has said.

"John Carrington, our strength and conditioning coach, is also my support on defence and he's very good at working on tackle technique. England's World Cup-winning former coach Clive Woodward said Eddie Jones's men must work on their discipline given they have shown a tendency to lose control under pressure."They've got this powerful team... an X-factor team but quite a few of the starting 15 have got a track record of losing it in a game under pressure," Woodward, who led England to the World Cup win in 2003, told the BBC.
