Courtney Lawes and Owen Farrell are in line to reach a century of England caps while Cadan Murley could make his debut after all three were named in Eddie Jones’ squad for the Autumn Nations Series.
Eddie Jones: “This is a very strong, vibrant squad and a number of good players have been left out. We are pleased with the depth and the strength of the squad.
“The autumn internationals will be like a mini Rugby World Cup for us, starting with two tough games against Argentina and Japan which mirrors our Pool fixtures at next year’s tournament.
“Then we’ll have knock out type games against New Zealand and South Africa – all four games will be great tests for us.
“In Jersey we’ll start the week with Misogi activity where the players will find out about themselves and each other. Then we’ll rip into training for the rest of the week, so the team can come together on and off the pitch.
“We’re very pleased to be going back to Jersey and to a good Championship club in Jersey Reds who are very supportive of us and of the local rugby community. We’ve been made to feel very welcome there and look forward to our return.”
