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.
