Ollie Thorley has been part of England’s Six Nations squad throughout the 2020 tournament but has so far failed to win his first cap.

Gloucester legend Wood spent his entire career at Kingsholm in a career that spanned 15 years between 20031 and 2016.

Wood represented England at under-21 level and Saxons level and was called into the full England squad party to tour South Africa in 2008 but despite being named to start had to pull out due to illness.
