Figure image
Ben Youngs has retained his place in a 28-man squad preparing for England's third autumn Test, against Samoa at Twickenham this Saturday evening.

Scrum-half Youngs is the only Leicester Tigers player included in the squad who report to the training base at Pennyhill Park this evening.
 
Northampton centre Luther Burrell has been recalled, while Bath wing Semesa Rokoduguni has not recovered sufficiently from the injury which kept him out of the South Africa match on Saturday and centre Kyle Eastmond will go through the return to play protocol after suffering concussion in the hope of playing this weekend.
 
In accordance with the Elite Player Squad agreement, England will release players on Tuesday evening to prepare for the Aviva Premiership games.
