THERE was no place for uncapped Worcester Warriors prop Nick Schonert in the latest England squad.
But Warriors pair Ted Hill and Ben Te’o have been named in Eddie Jones’ 28-man group to prepare for Saturday’s final autumn Test against Australia at Twickenham (3pm).
Schonert was part of the England set-up last week to train for Quilter International against Japan before being released back to Warriors.
But the 27-year-old misses out on this occasion meaning he will be available for Worcester’s Premiership clash with Harlequins at Sixways on Friday (7.45pm).
Flanker Hill, 19, won his first cap as a replacement in last Saturday’s 35-15 victory over Japan at Twickenham having been involved in a training camp in Portugal last month.
Centre Te’o trained with England last week but was not included in the matchday 23 against Japan.
Te’o started in both of England’s first two November fixtures against South Africa and New Zealand.
ENGLAND SQUAD
Forwards: Ewels, George, Hartley, Hepburn, Hill, Hughes, Itoje, Lawes, Moon, Shields, Sinckler, Stooke, Underhill, Williams, Wilson.
Backs: Ashton, Cokanasiga, Daly, Farrell, Ford, Francis, May, Nowell, Slade, Te’o, Tuilagi, Wigglesworth, Youngs.
