Pollock left on bench as England field unchanged starting XV against Argentina

England's Head Coach Steve Borthwick has opted for continuity in his lineup for Saturday's Nations Championship match against Argentina, retaining an unchanged starting XV from last week's 73-8 victory over Fiji. The only changes to the matchday 23 come in the form of replacements, with Ben Spencer and Emmanuel Iyogun, an uncapped loosehead prop from Northampton, joining the squad. This decision comes despite the impressive performance of Henry Pollock, who scored a hat-trick of tries in England's win over Fiji, which was deemed insufficient to earn him a promotion to the starting lineup.

Borthwick has chosen to stick with Ben Earl at No 8 and Guy Pepper at openside flanker, a decision that has sparked some debate among fans and pundits. The head coach has instead opted to utilize Pollock as an impact substitute, alongside other bench players such as Bristol's Benhard van Rensburg and Saracens' Noah Caluori. The decision to keep the starting lineup unchanged is likely aimed at maintaining consistency and momentum heading into the final round of Nations Championship fixtures.

The match against Argentina is expected to be a highly competitive and intense encounter, with Borthwick expressing his excitement about the "fantastic atmosphere" that is anticipated at the venue. As England look to secure a strong finish to the Nations Championship, they will be hoping to build on their dominant performance against Fiji and secure a positive result against a tough Argentine side.
