Head coach Eddie Jones has named his England squad for this weekend’s Rugby World Cup warm-up clash with neighbours Wales in Twickenham.
With no new players added to the squad following England’s 12-day training camp in Treviso, Italy, Mike Brown (Harlequins), Alex Dombrandt (Harlequins), Ben Spencer (Saracens) and Ben Te’o (unattached) are not included in England’s squad for the game.
There’s also once again no room for Danny Cipriani in Jones’ squad. In addition, Jack Nowell (Exeter Chiefs) will continue his rehabilitation in camp.
England will play Wales (11 August) and Ireland (24 August) at Twickenham Stadium and Italy (6 September) in Newcastle as part of their warm-up schedule as well as an away fixture against Wales (17 August) in Cardiff.
