2012: 'The perfect game' against New Zealand

The All Blacks had been unbeaten in 20 matches when they arrived at Twickenham in 2012, a run which included winning their home World Cup in 2011.

Stuart Lancaster, who took over as England head coach in 2011, had recently blooded a new era of young internationals and wanted them to play without fear.

His side pulled off one of the great victories in England history as they destroyed the world champions 38-21.

Centre Manu Tuilagi was the standout performer that day, with Care appearing in the closing stages off the bench.

"Everything came off and it was almost the perfect game, which never really happens," Care told Rugby Union Daily.

"But it happened that day and I got to come on at the end and just enjoy the fact we were 20 points up against New Zealand - how many times can you do that">
