Graham Rowntree has vowed England will confront South Africa with 'all guns blazing' at Twickenham on Saturday as they seek to atone for a losing start to the QBE Series. The ambition of issuing a statement of intent against New Zealand ahead of next year's World Cup was dashed by a 24-21 defeat that saw Stuart Lancaster's men picked apart in a one-sided second half. England have not toppled the Springboks in 11 meetings dating back to 2006 and a loss this weekend would represent their worst sequence of results for eight years.
