England's head coach must add steel after 26-6 defeat, with Smithies and Brimson the likeliest contenders
The scoreline alone offers concrete evidence of how underwhelming England were against Australia in the first Ashes Test on Saturday, but if anyone needed further proof, a glimpse around the Wembley crowd was somewhat telling, too.
As a one-sided contest ebbed towards a predictable conclusion, there were cheers among those sitting near the press box. Not for an England try, but for a paper aeroplane crafted by a home supporter that had successfully made its way from the top of one tier on to the pitch. It was about the only thing that went right for those of an English persuasion.
The beauty of a three-Test series is that no matter what happens in the first match there is an opportunity to bounce back. But, conversely, England are already in must-win territory after their 26-6 defeat and the odds feel worryingly stacked against them going into next weekend's second Test at Everton's new ground.
