Four players who SHOULD be in the England squad based on form

Following his latest England snub, the son of Wallabies great Michael Lynagh has now been approached by Italy about the prospect of playing Test rugby for the Azzurri.

He has a right to be frustrated as the speedster is the Premiership's joint third top try-scorer with seven and has made more metres (710) than Jack Nowell and Jonny May combined.

He's already previously had a spell in one of Eddie Jones' England training squads but was overlooked for both the Autumn and Six Nations squads.

Six Nations chief executive Ben Morel has ruled out the prospect of a promotion/relegation scheme, saying Italy's dismal record does not threaten the team's credibility.

The 23-year-old has proved to be a tank-like ball carrier, beating a division high 46 defenders so far this season, which is more than Alex Dombrandt and Sam Simmonds combined. WIllis has also made a stunning 127 tackles and has scored four tries.

De Glanville continues to be one of the most underrated 15s in the country. He's been a shining light in a very poor Bath side, making a stunning 932 metres (third highest) with the ball in hand and has beaten 32 defenders (sixth highest).

Ludlow is a hard carrying and powerful back row forward that has become a regular in the Gloucester pack down the years. Despite finally making his England debut as captain during the summer, Ludlow finds himself in the cold despite his division-high 170 tackle haul in the Gallagher Premiership.
