Lawrence suffered a damaged hamstring during the final quarter of their defeat to France.
OLLIE LAWRENCE HAS been ruled out of England’s final Guinness Six Nations match against Ireland because of a damaged hamstring.
Guy Porter has been drafted into a 36-man training squad as centre cover but Manu Tuilagi is also available having completed his suspension for dangerous play.Until the shattering collapse against France, Lawrence had been a success story of England’s Championship on account of blockbuster displays against Italy and Wales.
The remainder of the starting XV and bench in action against France have been retained, meaning Borthwick has so far opted against wielding the axe in response to England’s third heaviest defeat of all time.
