Courtney Lawes starts for England as they make the trip to Paris this weekend to take on France.
Injury has ruled out captain Dylan Hartley (Northampton Saints) but Eddie Jones has named an otherwise unchanged starting forward pack to the one that faced Scotland last month.
And with Lawes beginning the game at flanker, Jones is looking for his side to rectify their disappointing performance against Scotland in the last round.
“This game is about the opportunity for the team to move forward and we want a response from the players this week," said Jones.
“Against France we want to be brutal and aggressive on the gain line and to play with a great tactical discipline.”
