Sam Simmonds overlooked again as Eddie Jones confirms squad for Wales

Eddie Jones has recalled a squad of 35 players to The Lensbury, Teddington, ahead of the match, which takes place at Parc y Scarlets, Llanelli, on Saturday 28 November (4pm KO).

England will be looking to continue their winning run, after beating Ireland 18-7 at Twickenham Stadium last Saturday.

Despite impressive displays, Joe and Sam Simmonds remain out of the England reckoning.

Luke Cowan-Dickie and Anthony Watson return to the squad after injury. George Furbank and Jacob Umaga have withdrawn from the squad through injury.

England’s final Quilter International, a tournament placing game, will be played at Twickenham Stadium on Sunday 6 December (2pm KO).

All Autumn Nations Cup games will be live on Amazon Prime.
