England name 25 man squad for 6 Nations off week
England head coach Eddie Jones has recalled 25 players for a three-day training camp in central London beginning today.
Maro Itoje and Dylan Hartley also join up with the squad to continue their rehabilitation.
Exeter Chiefs' Ben Moon and Leicester's Ellis Genge provide cover at prop for the injured Mako Vunipola.
Ollie Devoto also comes into the squad having only played five minutes for England back in 2016, coming off the bench against Wales.
The biggest win over France since 1911 has cranked up expectation surrounding the showdown in Cardiff, as England look to continue their stunning start to World Cup year.
Wales now the only other Six Nations team with a 100 per cent record after posting wins against France and Italy.

McKenzie is better than Barrett , but not better than Richie Mo'unga. Richie regularly outplayed DMac in Super Rugby. , as he did in the 2023 Final in Hamilton. I remember the 2021 Aotearoa Super Rugby Final here in CHCH. Mo'unga took him to the cleaners. McKenzie is a fine footballer , but at best a hybrid 10 . Fergus Burke , ( now playing in England ), who made a big difference when he came back late in the Crusaders season , is a better 10 than DMac. I also think 140 game + Crusader Matt Todd was always a better no 7 than Sam Cane.A big part of 3 title winning teams when South African teams were still in the comp. How many titles did the Chiefs win in that period of time?
