However, Jones says there is one England squad player who may miss the tour of Australia or the Saxons trip to South Africa in order to chase the Olympics dream.

"I have spoken to one player," Jones said. "He was very enthusiastic. It's a back, but we won't go any further than that.


any guesses as to who this could be? Seeing as they're talking Saxons too and it's a back are we looking at Cips or Wade?

Cips, I guess? Is Eastmond in the squad?

I think it might be Marlan Yarde.

Love this from Eddie Jones

Also anyone else listen to the Lancaster interview on Radio 5 ? Worth a listen, you can catch it on a podcast.

Any guesses on who the backsliders are?

Sad to say, Mike Brown hasn't been anywhere near his best in the last couple of Quins matches I've watched.

I suspect you could add Ford and Care to that equation...

Fairly safe to say that Ford already wasn't at his best during the Six Nations! Not sure about Care though? He wasn't great yesterday, but did run in a hattrick the previous time out against Irish.
