England, originally poised as quarter-final contenders, have transformed into a leisurely bunch during their week off.
This Autumn, Ruck’s England content will be powered by Charles Tyrwhitt, as they introduce an exclusive assortment of England Rugby apparel and accessories within the Tyrwhitt Supporter Collection. Not only do they back the team, but they also elevate your wardrobe.
A number of players, such as Ben Youngs and Ellis Genge, have opted for a Disneyland getaway with their families.
Meanwhile, Marcus Smith and Tom Curry have ventured to the dazzling streets of Paris, with wing Henry Arundell and Joe Marchant making preparations for their moves to Racing 92 and Stade Francais after the Rugby World Cup.
Freddie Steward has chosen the sunnier landscapes of Nice, while many players with families have gathered at their base camp in Le Touquet.
The team is scheduled to reunite on Wednesday evening, followed by consecutive training sessions on Thursday and Friday, in preparation for their last pool match against Samoa on October 7th.

Or check out the brief ranking below:
#10. Australia – 4.2
#9. France – 4.3
They Said: ” The French also score below-average rating for both Away Support and Home Stadium Atmosphere, the latter not helped by the fact you need a telescope (never mind a pair of binoculars) to see the pitch (never mind the action) from some of the seats at the Stade de France.”
#7 Italy – 4.4
They Said: “Like the French, they are let down by Away Support and, most impactfully, Home Stadium Atmosphere, which can often suffer from one-sided, processional performances on the pitch, although thankfully, these are becoming rarer occasions.”
