Watson and Cowan-Dickie summoned by Jones
- 3393
The English duo of Anthony Watson and Luke Cowan-Dickie have been recalled by England head coach Eddie Jones ahead of this coming weekend’s fixture against Wales at Parc Y Scarlets.
Watson seems to have got the better of a recent ankle injury while Cowan-Dickie is fit again after knee surgery.
Watson and Cowan-Dickie will be a welcome boost to England stocks – the former on the wing and the latter up front – and will be raring to go in the international arena.
England are looking good so far, currently heading up Group A with two wins from as many outings. It is likely that they will meet France in the cup decider, the latter in exactly the same position in Group B.
