Kyle & Marcus return from England Camp
DIR By: Fearless Fred

...while Alex and Mike are retained. I doubt that Kyle is
dropped from contention, given he's first or second choice TH.
More likely that it's a case of Jones using this as a chance to
refresh the training squad, resting some players, bringing in
those who are trying to make a claim for inclusion, etc...
[quote=England Rugby]Jones announces squad for second training
camp
28 June 2019, 14:00
England men’s head coach Eddie Jones has announced a squad of 31
players to attend a second training camp at The Lensbury Hotel
(30 June-4 July).
Danny Cipriani (Gloucester Rugby), Piers Francis (Northampton
Saints), Willi Heinz (Gloucester Rugby), Courtney Lawes
(Northampton Saints) and Ollie Thorley (Gloucester Rugby) have
been added to the squad while Kyle Sinckler (Harlequins) and
Marcus Smith (Harlequins) will return to their clubs next week.
Jack Nowell (Exeter Chiefs) will join George Kruis (Saracens)
and Mako Vunipola (Saracens) in camp to continue their
rehabilitation.
Jones said: “It has been a really positive week, we have worked
on our fundamentals of the game, a little bit of physical
conditioning and I am really pleased with the attitude of the
players. They have all come back from their leave in excellent
condition and the best I have seen in the time I have been with
England.
“Next week we will add some players and be looking to improve
our physical conditioning, ability to understand how we want to
play the game and start to increase the pressure at training. We
have a couple of players going back to their clubs as we feel it
is in their best interests in terms of the World Cup to do that,
and we will consider their participation in the squad further
down the track.”
England’s official Rugby World Cup training squad will be
announced by Jones at Japan House on Thursday 4 July.
England will play Wales (11 August) and Ireland (24 August) at
Twickenham Stadium and Italy (6 September) in Newcastle as part
of the Quilter Internationals as well as an away fixture against
Wales (17 August) in Cardiff.
England will travel to Treviso, Italy for a heat camp from 22
July until 2 August before returning to Italy on 28 August until
5 September. The squad will also be based in Bristol for a week
in July (14-18) and in August (12-16) ahead of England’s away
match against Wales. For the two matches against Wales and
Ireland at Twickenham Stadium, the squad will train at Pennyhill
Park.

Piers Francis. Along with Brad Shields one of the most overrated
players to have worn an England shirt in recent times

What should we read into Marcus' omission? Maybe nothing more
than that Jones only needs two fly halves at this camp and wants
to see/assess Cipriani?

I think he has made his mind up about cips already sadly.
Smithy will be a class act in the future - right now he is too
inconsistent to be a top Prem player never mind an
international. I am sure he is in the squads to give him
experience rather than being under consideration for a squad
place.

Agreed. When he is good then he is very good, but then he drops
off...
