Camp.
England head coach Eddie Jones has named a 38-man England squad for their training camp in Italy, with some notable absentees.
The squad will fly to Italy from London on Monday for a 12-day heat camp to help acclimatise players to conditions expected during the Rugby World Cup in Japan.
Bath Rugby’s Sam Underhill and Anthony Watson will travel with the squad after spending last week doing specialised strength and conditioning work separately off site while centre Joe Marchant (Harlequins) joins the group for the first time.
There’s no room in the squad for Danny Cipriani once again, while the likes of Chris Robshaw, Dylan Hartley and Danny Care continue to miss out on selection.
