Eddie Jones's England options a cause for joy but they bring problems too theguardian.com

Picking England’s team to face France this weekend should, on the face of it, be the easiest job in rugby. Identify the most suitable replacement for the injured Maro Itoje in the second row, rubber-stamp the other 14 members of the starting XV responsible for beating Ireland in Dublin and, for once, head out for coffee without a care in the world. In reality, it is not quite that simple, as underlined by the 35 names reporting back for training in Bagshot. Losing Itoje for the France and Wales games, if not slightly longer, is clearly an untimely blow but, in contrast to previous years, the talent pool presently available to Eddie Jones is close to overflowing in certain positions.
