Marler out: The Best XV of England stars who missed out on Jones' training squad
Rugby NewsTuesday, 17 May 2022 at 15:36
London Irish's teenage full-back Henry Arundell is included in a 36-strong England training squad to prepare for July's Test series against Australia.
However, a number of stars were snubbed with Jones confirming that Ben Youngs, along with the experienced trio of Henry Slade, Joe Marler and Jamie George, will be rested.
And when you combine the rested and omitted players you get a team that is arguably better than who the Aussie has called up.

- 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
