Te'o to join England camp as centre steps up recovery
By Jack Davies
Ben Te'o will join England's preparations for next weekend's clash with Australia as he steps up his recovery from an ankle injury.
The Worcester Warriors centre sustained the issue on club duty last month but has been invited to form part of the England camp until Wednesday.
Joe Marler has also been named as part of the 35-man squad for the match, having served a suspension that initially looked set to rule him out of the Wallabies Test.
Marler was found guilty of striking Will Rowlands with his arm during Harlequins' Champions Cup loss to Wasps.
Harlequins successfully appealed the dates of the ban, which paved the way for him to be called up a week earlier.
Marcus Smith and Zach Mercer have, once again, been named as apprentices by Eddie Jones.

Think it was a great defensive performance by Northampton. They didn't have stage fright in the first half, the Nienaber defense smothered them. They limited Leinster to 15-3 in the first half. It could have been over by then. A great try from Leinster in the start of the second half looked to have sealed it. But Byrne missed another conversion. Northampton started trying little kicks behind the Leinster wingers. Leinster messed one and Smith brilliantly made the conversion. Leinster decided to tighten the game after Byrne missed a straight forward penalty. A few errors got NH into the 22 and they scored and converted with a few minutes left. Another brilliant steal from Lawes saw NH have a final attack which was turned over by Conan. A classic semi final. World record attendance of 82,300. Leinsters 3 week preparation warranted for this one.
