"Never an option" - Eddie Jones explains Marcus Smith omission from England's starting XV

Speaking in a press conference, he revealed a severe 'lack of training time' due to a niggle meant he could not possibly start - which kind of makes sense, unless he is required to come on early if injuries occur.

Jones said on their preparation: “We’ve had two good preparation camps in Jersey and Pennyhill Park, worked really hard and we’re ready for a tough, physical game.

“We respect Tonga greatly and we know that with props like Siegfried Fisi’ihoi and Ben Tameifuna, we are going to have to go in the front door before the back door.

“We’re especially looking forward to getting back out in front of a full crowd at Twickenham and playing some entertaining, exciting rugby for all of the supporters, we can’t wait to have them back.”
