Borthwick makes Feyi-Waboso call

Immanuel Feyi-Waboso will make his first start for England in tomorrow’s Guinness

Six Nations clash with Ireland at Twickenham.

In an audacious selection by head coach Steve Borthwick, FeyiWaboso will line-up on the right wing less than a year after playing for National League One side Taunton Titans.

The 21-year-old made his debut off the bench against Italy at the start of the tournament and also came on as a replacement for the round-three defeat by Scotland, both appearances totalling 20 minutes.

Apart from scoring a try in his cameo at Murrayfield, the Exeter Chief showed significant promise and is chosen ahead of 67-cap veteran Elliot Daly, who is given the number 23 jersey instead.

Borthwick has made three changes in personnel and one positional switch following the 30-21 defeat in Edinburgh, but there is still no place for Freddie Steward at fullback with George Furbank continuing at 15.

Scrum-half Alex Mitchell has recovered from the knee injury that forced him to sit out the Scotland clash and replaces Danny Care, who is set to win his 100th cap off the bench.

The third new face is George Martin following his promotion to the second row to join Maro Itoje after he made a difference coming on at Murrayfield, his own struggle with a knee issue now behind him.

“As always, we’ve selected what we think is our strongest 23 to leave us best placed to win the game,” Borthwick said.

“Ireland are without doubt one of the best teams in the world and we’ll have to be at our very best against them on Saturday.”
