LONDON (Reuters) - Stuart Lancaster said England's failure to land the Six Nations championship on his watch "burns inside" as he prepares for his fourth tilt at the title after a hat-trick of second places.

England have won the Six Nations only once since winning the World Cup in 2003 -- in 2011 under Martin Johnson -- and with such a huge pool of talent to pick from, it is an unimpressive record.
