ENGLAND are determined to avoid being overcome by the occasion when they clash with Scotland in Sunday's World Cup quarterfinal.

Coach: Red Roses’ focus is on game not occasion

The Red Roses are red hot favour-ites to register a 31st successive Test victory with the winners at Ashton Gate going on to face France or Ireland in the all-Six Nations half of the knockout phase.

Anything other than lifting the World Cup on September 27 would be seen as failure, but forwards coach Louis Deacon insists England are approaching each obstacle as just another day in the office.
