There are set to be four high-profile absentees when Eddie Jones names his 2022 England Six Nations squad later today.

The Mail Online has revealed a number of experienced stars will miss out as he's set to include a number of uncapped prospects in his squad.

PLAYERS WHO WILL MISS OUT:

#1. George Ford (Leicester Tigers)

George Ford has been in imperious form for Premiership leaders Leicester throughout the period Farrell has been out of action. He was also omitted from the last England squad which was unveiled in October.

However, the Mail Online report that Ford is set to be left out again, with the possibility that Jones will include Bath’s Orlando Bailey, 20, in the squad as an apprentice.
