The real reason Billy Vunipola and Danny Care were snubbed by England head coach

5. Marland Yarde

Jones had an unsavoury exchange with the winger prior to his sudden exit from Harlequins.

Yarde, 28, last played for England in Argentina in 2017, and has remained exiled despite stellar Premiership form.

His head coach, Alex Sanderson, said “Marland is playing the rugby of his life at the moment and I would like think the powers to be, if they are watching the games, will see that as well.

“The injury was a big turning point and he has changed a lot of his approach to life with a lot of charity work with us and is a great example to young players who could and would have gone down some of the paths he had gone down that led to him not having potentially the best reputation during the first part of his career.”
