In his latest BBC Sport column, England World Cup winner Matt Dawson discusses England's last-gasp defeat by France in Paris and what is next for Steve Borthwick's side, who finished with one Six Nations win.

I knew England were going to deliver something against France in Paris the moment I watched the warm-up.

The intensity was there straight away. Everyone looked dialled in, focused and, most importantly, confident.

The messaging looked clear and the players looked like they believed in what they were about to do.

That was a big shift from their first defeat by Italy last weekend.
