One player ruled out of Eddie Jones squad already
Autumn Nations SeriesTuesday, 19 October 2021 at 14:35
England winger Anthony Watson will miss England’s Autumn Nations Series campaign after suffering a serious knee injury against Saracens.
The injury could potentially rule the full-back out for up to nine months. Harlequins speedster Louis Lynagh is thought to be in pole position to replace him in the squad.
Eddie Jones has included four uncapped players. Nic Dolly and Tommy Freeman receive their first call-ups, alongside Mark Atkinson and Raffi Quirke who joined up with the squad last month for a short training camp

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
