Rugby World Cup 2015: Fans show their support for England
Supporters get behind #WearTheRose campaign
In a bid to help England push to victory on home soil in the Rugby World Cup, O2 have launched their #WearTheRose campaign.
The England team sponsor are encouraging fans to show their support for Stuart Lancaster's side through their 'Rose Army'. A network of supporters have been calling on friends, family and the rugby family as a whole to pledge their backing using social media.
The most recent drive saw over a thousand videos collected - some of which can be seen in the video below.
England need all the support they can get as they prepare to play Ireland this weekend. The meeting at Twickenham will be their final match before they kick the tournament off against Fiji on Friday 18 September.
Should England make it all the way, they'll be playing in the final on Saturday 31 October.
