England concluded their Autumn Nations campaign on a high note, decisively defeating Japan 59-14 and breaking their losing streak. The match showcased a flurry of tries, with hookers Jamie George and Luke Cowan-Dickie each scoring two, while Henry Slade delivered a standout performance in midfield. Despite the impressive scoreline, the victory does little to overshadow a disappointing year for England, who finished with only five wins out of 12 Tests. Notably, four of those victories came against lower-ranked teams, including Japan, Italy, and Wales, highlighting the team's struggles against stronger opponents. While the match against Japan provided some glimpses of potential, it also served as a reminder that tougher challenges lie ahead. New Zealand, Australia, and South Africa would likely have capitalized on the opportunities presented, potentially racking up even higher scores. Nonetheless, the win offers a glimmer of hope for England as they look to regroup and improve in the future.
