Kieran Crowley changes three after the defeat in France. Federico Mori starts on the wing in place of last week’s teenage try scorer, Tommaso Menoncello. Odd selection this, given the young lad’s try and that Mori is a center and has never started a test on the wing.
Braam Steyn is for Sebastian Negri in the back row, and Pietro Ceccarelli gets nod in the front row ahead of Tiziano Pasquali. Those waiting for Sergio Parrisse’s farewell nostalgia tour appearance must wait a little longer.
Eddie Jones has rolled the dice, changing half the team, some through injury and some through choice. Maro Itoje moves to blind-side while the coach awaits Courtney Lawes’s return to fitness. Charlie Ewels takes the vacant lock berth and Alex Dombrandt is in at No. 8. In the front row, there are starts for Jamie George and Will Stuart.
Jack Nowell returns to the wing as Joe Marchant moves to outside center and creates the 10-12-13 with Smith and Slade that looked very promising in the Autumn. Feeding the ball to them will be Harry Randall who has taken the scrum-half shirt from Ben Youngs for this match at least.
