HORIE OUT, LEITCH IN FOR MATCH AGAINST SAMOA
JONES WARY OF PUMAS FORWARDS
TOKYO - Eddie Jones expects to take the battle to Argentina in the scrum in today’s Rugby World Cup Pool C match as England prepare to get serious in their bid to claim a second Webb Ellis trophy.
England have made a perfect start to the tournament with bonus points wins over Tonga and the United States to top the pool but now face their first tier-one opposition in the Pumas.
After mixing and matching in the warm-ups and first two matches of the tournament, Jones has named his strongest side for the Tokyo Stadium clash against the twice World Cup semifinallists.
They come up against an Argentina side in urgent need of a win to keep their World Cup dreams alive having lost to France on the opening weekend.
