Calls coming thick and fast for Umaga to be England's 10

Jacob Umaga has made the English fans go into a frenzy after his exceptional performance against Leicester Tigers, with many calling for his immediate inclusion into the England squad.

Not only do they want the 22-year-old to be included in the squad but want him to be the direct back-up to Owen Farrell. However, with Farrell playing at inside centre, Umaga could well and truly be the front runner to take the No.10 jersey.

In just eight matches, he has scored five tries. What’s more remarkable is that he has come up against Danny Cipriani and Farrell.

Do you think the hype is too much or can Tana Umaga’s nephew crack the England squad when international rugby resumes?
