Stuart Lancaster demands that his England players behave themselves during their upcoming tour of South Africa.

Stuart Lancaster has called upon his England players to behave themselves during their upcoming tour of South Africa.

A number of the England squad, under the management of Martin Johnson, were heavily criticised for their conduct both on and off the field during the World Cup in New Zealand last year.

However, Lancaster has warned the travelling party that he will not accept a repeat this time around.

"I talked about the environment we have created since the World Cup and the reasons why," said Lancaster.

"I started the talk by reminding the players where we were six months ago and I showed them some of the headlines.

"I said to them, 'The reason we have got from where we were then to where we are now is because we have focused on why we want to play for England'."

The three-match series will be Lancaster's first since he was given the coaching job on a permanent basis.
