Marcus Smith and Alex Mitchell Return, Bolstering England’s Lineup for Ireland Clash

England has received a significant boost as Marcus Smith and Alex Mitchell return for the challenging Six Nations clash with Ireland. Both players have been deemed fit to rejoin the squad after undergoing rehabilitation from injuries at the training camp in York. Smith recovering from a calf injury could potentially compete for the fly-half spot against George Ford.

Mitchell return is crucial for England considering his form in their previous Six Nations victories. With Smith and Mitchell available, coach Steve Borthwick now has his intended first-choice half-backs at his disposal. England aims to improve its attacking performance against Ireland who are pursuing a second successive grand slam.

Immanuel Feyi Waboso rejoins the squad after missing the previous camp while Will Muir remains with the team and Tom Pearson, Max Ojomoh and Harry Randall drop out.
