Six Nations 2022: George Ford cut from England 25-man preparation squad ahead of Ireland game
Eddie Jones has made eight adjustments to his 25-man roster and saved over 200 England Test caps in next week's Six Nations game against Ireland. The most obvious absentee was George Ford, who watched Marcus Smith take control of his number 10 jersey from him. Six Nations 2022 fans can buy England Vs Ireland Tickets from our website.
In their place are uncapped
London-Irish winger Ollie Hassell-Collins and George Furbank of Northampton,
who could come off the bench as number 10 and 15.
The front row group sees a
ton of changes with the all-new front row lineup. Luke Cowan-Dickie is unlikely
to be selected after a knee injury against Wales. He was replaced by Jamie
Blamire of Newcastle. Props Joe Marler and Bevan Rodd also missed. Given the
chance, the uncapped duo of William Goodrick-Clarke and Alfie Barbeary will
provide proof of England's front-row reserves against the mighty Irish.
Joe Launchbury, 30, who has
made 69 matches for his country, can play his first Test since December 2020.
The Wasps number 2 suffered a knee injury last April that kept him out of the
Lions' tour of England and Ireland to South Africa, but he has played 281
minutes in the club's four Premiership starts since January. His return to
health and form meant Ollie Chessum, 21, missed out.
Jones might reconsider
getting on the wing with Courtney Lawes and may want to pair him up with Maro
Itoje in the second row to fill the void left by Curry. Arbitrating by the
experience he has left behind in crucial positions, the England coach has new
ideas for the game to be won next Saturday.
