Angry England fans are frustrated by Eddie Jones' latest call-up

England head coach Eddie Jones has named a 32-man squad to begin preparations for their second NatWest 6 Nations match against Wales on Saturday

Saracens scrum-half Richard Wigglesworth has been added to the squad following an injury to Ben Youngs, which has caused a bit of an outcry from fans.

In a poll we ran, 65% of readers wanted to see Wasps Dan Robson in the squad.

Lawrence Dallaglio and Will Greenwood were two of many who were perplexed when Jones yet again snubbed the playmaker for the initial squad.

And social media has continued on that way of thinking yet again.

Exeter boys slowly getting recognition one by one. Dan Robson still in the "very unlucky not to selected camp"

Wigglesworth? As fine a player as he is, Dan Robson is the best scrum half in England.

No offence to Richard Wigglesworth but really? . He’s 36 this year FFS. Dan Robson should be understandably gutted. #ENGvWAL #England #wasps

Great to see @NateWJHughes back in the squad, but what exactly does Dan Robson, currently the best scrum half in England, need to do to get into the National squad? @d_jrobson @WaspsRugby @EnglandRugby
