6. Chris Robshaw (England)
Had a great season with Harlequins, but it always looked as though Brad Shields was going to beat him to Jones’ squad ever since the New Zealand-born player moved to England.
7. Thomas Young (Wales)
The Wasps flanker is excluded, but could come into consideration later this summer depending on his recovery.
8.Facundo Isa (Argentina)
Cordero and Herrera were both significant omissions by Mario Ledesma but no call was more stunning than leaving out Facundo Isa, whose power off the back of the scrum and in the loose would have been enormous for Argentina in Japan.
