Three players withdrawn from England training camp
By Ian Cameron
Head coach Eddie Jones has been forced to withdraw three England players from his October mini-camp due to a slew of injuries over the course of the weekend's Gallagher Premiership.
Saracens hooker Jamie George, Leicester centre Guy Porter and Harlequins hooker Jack Walker have all been withdrawn. In turn Jones has called up George McGuigan, Adam Radwan and Jack Singleton respectively.
An RFU statement reads: "Jamie George, Guy Porter and Jack Walker have withdrawn from the England men’s squad through injury.
"England head coach Eddie Jones has called up Newcastle Falcons duo George McGuigan and Adam Radwan, along with Gloucester’s Jack Singleton, to the squad who have met today in London for a three-day training camp."
England are currently preparing for their four Autumn Nations Series fixtures at Twickenham Stadium in November, when they'll play Los Pumas, Japan, the All Blacks and the Springboks.

What are you on about fran. You sound like john.
Go to commentsNo he's just limited in what he can do. Like Scott Robertson. And Eddie Jones.
Sometimes it doesn't work out so you have to go looking for another national coach who supports his country and believes in what he is doing. Like NZ replacing Ian Foster. And South Africa bringing Erasmus back in to over see Neinbar.
This is the real world. Not the fantasy oh you don't need passion for your country for international rugby. Ask a kiwi, or a south african or a frenchman.
