Leicester Tigers flanker Will Owen will start in the back row for England Under-18s against Australia Schools at Harrow School tomorrow (Wednesday).

England head coach John Fletcher said: “This is a great opportunity for our guys to go out and put in a performance against Australia. They only tour once every four years and we’re looking forward to taking them on.

“They will play an expansive game, which suits us, we like to play with the ball in hand too, so it promises to be an exciting game.”
