Published on November 22, 2018 | Leave a response

England coach Eddie Jones has made nine changes to their starting XV to face the Wallabies at Twickenham on Saturday.

Jones has brought many of his regulars who sat out the win against Japan back into the lineup as England prepare for their final Test of the November series.

Jamie George retains his position at hooker above Dylan Hartley, with props Ben Moon and Kyle Sinkler returning to the XV.

Courtney Lawes shifts from flank to lock alongside Maro Itoje, while both Sam Underhill and Brad Shields start in the loose trio. Mark Wilson moves to No 8.

Owen Farrell returns to captain the side at flyhalf, with Ben Te’o and Henry Slade in midfield. Jonny May comes into the back three to partner Elliot Daly and Joe Cokanasiga.

Manu Tuilagi has been passed fit and could finally get the opportunity to make his first England appearance in two years.

England – 15 Elliot Daly, 14 Joe Cokanasiga, 13 Henry Slade, 12 Ben Te’o, 11 Johnny May, 10 Owen Farrell (c), 9 Ben Youngs, 8 Mark Wilson, 7 Sam Underhill, 6 Brad Shields, 5 Maro Itoje, 4 Courtney Lawes, 3 Kyle Sinkler, 2 Jamie George, 1 Ben Moon.
Subs: 16 Dylan Hartley, 17 Alec Hepburn, 18 Harry Williams, 19 Charlie Ewels , 20 Nathan Hughes, 21 Richard Wigglesworth, 22 George Ford, 23 Manu Tuilagi.
