Borthwick drops two for Fiji

SQUAD ANNOUNCEMENT: England head coach Steve Borthwick has named his 36-player squad for the forthcoming Test match against Fiji at Allianz Stadium on Saturday, November 8.

Although there are no injury concerns following the 25-7 win over Australia, Borthwick has still made changes to the squad.

The big news is that teen sensation Noah Caluori, along with Max Ojomoh, has been released to their clubs.

Caluori’s exit means that the 19-year-old will have to wait for his debut.

Meanwhile, Bath loosehead prop Beno Obano and uncapped Northampton Saints lock Tom Lockett have been drafted into the set-up.

Obano returns to the England squad and could earn his first cap since the 2024 Six Nations.

Elliot Daly, George Martin, and Jack van Poortvliet will continue their rehabilitation with the squad.

Meanwhile, Freddie Steward remains in the line-up despite a suspected hand issue.

England squad:

Forwards: Fin Baxter, Ollie Chessum, Alex Coles, Luke Cowan-Dickie, Chandler Cunningham-South, Tom Curry, Theo Dan, Ben Earl, Ellis Genge, Jamie George, Joe Heyes, Maro Itoje, Nick Isiekwe, Jack Kenningham, Tom Lockett, Beno Obano, Asher Opoku-Fordjour, Guy Pepper, Henry Pollock, Will Stuart, Sam Underhill

Backs: Henry Arundell, Fraser Dingwall, Immanuel Feyi-Waboso, George Ford, Tommy Freeman, Ollie Lawrence, Alex Mitchell, Cadan Murley, Raffi Quirke, Tom Roebuck, Henry Slade, Fin Smith, Marcus Smith, Ben Spencer, Freddie Steward
