Head coach Eddie Jones says England are still suffering from a mental weakness exposed during the 2015 World Cup.
Six Nations: England 38-38 Scotland - watch all 11 tries
Jones claims the flaw is a result of England's traumatic group exit from their own World Cup four years ago, but is adamant it will be rectified in time for this year's tournament, which starts in September in Japan. "Whenever you have a difficult tournament or difficult games, there's always a lingering thought process there. Sometimes it takes longer than you'd like to fix it, but it is fixable.
"I've got one person that's going to help us that's a bit of an expert. I'm not sharing that name with you now. I haven't used her before."
