England head coach Eddie Jones has named a 32-man squad to begin preparations for their second NatWest 6 Nations match against Wales on Saturday
Saracens scrum-half Richard Wigglesworth has been added to the squad following an injury to Ben Youngs, which has caused a bit of an outcry from fans.
In a poll we ran, 65% of readers wanted to see Wasps Dan Robson in the squad.
Lawrence Dallaglio and Will Greenwood were two of many who were perplexed when Jones yet again snubbed the playmaker for the initial squad.
And social media has continued on that way of thinking yet again.
SOCIAL REACTION:
Shame for Dan Robson

Exeter boys slowly getting recognition one by one.
Dan Robson still in the “very unlucky not to selected camp”

Wigglesworth? As fine a player as he is, Dan Robson is the best scrum half in England. pic.twitter.com/SMkbSUKYwR

No offence to Richard Wigglesworth but really? . He’s 36 this year FFS. Dan Robson should be understandably gutted. #ENGvWAL #England #wasps

Nowt but contempt for Eddie Jones’ selection policy. Now looking forward to watching best English no.9 @d_jrobson on Sunday, not Saturday.

If you want to reward a player for consistent excellence then isn’t Dan Robson the player that should be in the squad

Great to see @NateWJHughes back in the squad, but what exactly does Dan Robson, currently the best scrum half in England, need to do to get into the National squad? @d_jrobson @WaspsRugby @EnglandRugby https://t.co/0JWd3t7Dw2
