England 3rd team

1. Alec Hepburn Mobile and attacks at scrum. Exeter loose-head has impressed Jones with handling skills

2. Luke Cowan-Dickie

Chiefs power carrier takes some stopping, but not as aware of support runners as George

3. Kyle Sinckler

Showed grit for Lions but has to become more consistent – and keep his finger off anger trigger

4. Callum Green

Old-school Newcastle lock top of Premiership line-out wins with 70. Formidable grappler

5. Jonny Hill

Athletic 6ft 8ins gets great lift-off at line-out, and is the Chiefs goto target. Speed and soft hands

6. Don Armand

Line-out tail-gunner for Exeter. Good body position and footwork help him punch over gain-line

7. Jack Willis

Wasps flanker has made impact with turn-over technique. Timing and nous stand out

8. James Chisholm

Abrasive Quins No.8 was England U20 star at JWC 2014 and World Junior Player of Year 2015

9. Dan Robson

Sprightly Wasps scrum-half has sharp radar, electric break and educated boot

10. Danny Cipriani

Plays in teeth of defensive gale. Impressive array of vintage touches

11. Nathan Earle

Saracens wing is a creator-finisher. Fast, elusive, and willing to run off the ball for others

12. Alex Lozowski

Second play-maker role at Sarries. Neat hands, good boot and punches above weight in tackle

13. Henry Trinder

Sparking Gloucester’s attack after lay-off. Adventurous, and has footwork and pace to back it up

14. Olly Woodburn

Hard to hold Exeter strike runner – top of Premiership clean breaks (28), and second best metres made

15. Alex Goode

Keeps delivering for Sarries. Counter-attacks with changes of direction and swerving runs Replacements

16. Tom Dunn

Bath hooker has prolific tackle counts. Heavy-duty alternative to those above him in pecking order

17. Ellis Genge

Sidelined with injury. Race between Sinckler and Leicester loose-head to see who is most dynamic carrier

18. Jake Cooper-Woolley

Wasps tight-head holds the world at the scrum, but should make bigger dents in the loose

19. Jamie Gibson

Boosted Saints with determination at No.6. Second in league turnovers and impressive line-out return

20. Tom Curry

Quick, fearless, tackles, gets over ball, handy support runner – but has openside got durability?

21. Ben Spencer

Rapid Saracens scrum-half makes defenders dwell around breakdown because he is such a danger

22. Piers Francis

Not been easy at Saints for former Auckland Blues fly-half, but fearless tackling men twice his size

23. Alex Lewington

Strike rate is so impressive for a wing playing for a London Irish side struggling to avoid relegation
