Jones looks to draw a line under offensive remarks

since been taken down from Youtube, shows Jones addressing an audience on behalf of Fuso, who are linked to England sponsors Mitsubishi. It was uploaded by Fuso in July last year but only came to light on Wednesday.

Ireland face opposition showing a total of ten changes, three of them positional switches, following the 22-16 defeat by France in Paris five days ago.

Stand-off George Ford, pictured, is dropped for only the second time in the Jones era in response to a disappointing Six Nations in which he has struggled to exert any influence behind a pack that has been bullied.

Owen Farrell moves to No 10 with Ben Te’o and Jonathan Joseph forming a new-look centre partnership and Elliot Daly has recovered from his foot injury to continue on the left wing.

Scrum-half Danny Care is demoted to the replacements, making way for Richard Wigglesworth, and Anthony Watson retains his full-back spot ahead of the benched Mike Brown. There are significant changes to the pack, too, with Dan Cole dropped for Kyle Sinckler at prop and George Kruis picked ahead of Joe Launchbury in the second row.

Knee injuries to Nathan Hughes and Courtney Lawes see Sam Simmonds and James Haskell start, while captain Dylan Hartley is restored at hooker having recovered from a tight calf.
