England unchanged as Tuilagi returns

Saturday, March 12 2016 by SNTV
  • Manu Tuilagi is recalled to the bench as England name an unchanged starting XV for their Six Nations Championship clash with Wales on Saturday (March 12)

    Eddie Jones has resisted the urge to shuffle his pack for the visit of Wales in the Six Nations on Saturday.

    And who can blame him with England looking to make it four wins from four games under Jones' leadership.

    The headline news is the return of Manu Tuilagi to the international fold. The centre was last selected for the squad back in 2014 due to injury and disciplinary problems.

    Jones' decision not to change his line-up means that the exciting Maro Itoje retains his place following an impressive debut against Ireland last time out.

    Georg Ford and Owen Farrell will once again line-up alongside each other in the centre.

    The other changes to the squad see Luke Cowan-Dickie and Joe Joe Launchbury come in at the expense of the injured Jamie Geroge and Courtney Lawes.

    Saturday's opponents Wales sit second in the table, behind England, with Warren Gatland also naming an unchanged side following the 19-10 win over France.

    With both sides unbeaten in this years Six Nations Saturday's clash at Twickenham promises to be a mammoth encounter.
