Rugby: England coach Borthwick urges his players to improve discipline in the Nations Championship

# Rugby: England head coach Steve Borthwick has warned his players against indiscipline, saying they recognise the vital importance of keeping 15 players on the field in the Nations Championship. England have amassed 15 yellow cards and one red card in their eight Tests so far this year, including four in their most recent outing against Argentina in July. Borthwick says his players will need to raise their standards at the breakdown and in defence if they are to compete successfully against Australia, Japan and New Zealand in the Nations Championship this month.
