Brad Barritt believes England can remain a serious attacking force in Manu Tuilagi's absence.

Barritt is delighted to see Kelly Brown, his Saracens club-mate, captaining Scotland after recovering from a broken leg he suffered on Heineken Cup duty in Treviso 12 months ago. "He will lead from the front," Barritt said. "He had a terrible injury. He has been dedicated to come back as quickly as possible and it is great news for him to be Scotland captain. But we will definitely put that aside until next week!"
