Eddie Jones has named his initial training squad ahead of the 2019 Rugby World Cup.
Alex Dombrandt (Harlequins), Lewis Ludlam (Northampton Saints), Ruaridh McConnochie (Bath Rugby) and Val Rapava Ruskin (Gloucester Rugby) receive their first call up to an England senior men’s training squad.
Jones could only pick players who were not involved in last month’s English Premiership semi-finals for his first training squad, because all those who were have been put on mandatory rest for five weeks.
Players from losing semi-finalists Gloucester and Northampton Saints will join the camp next week and Jones will name his final training party, including players from Premiership finalists Exeter Chiefs and Saracens, on July 4.
The final 31-man squad will then be finalised in late August or early September.
