LIST | 4 players Jones should drop... and who could replace them

He’s a bit of a renegade, but with eight tries in the Premiership already, the calls for an international recall continue to grow. Hopefully, talent prevails, but in this case, it’s more likely that Eddie Jones ignores fans and carries on with Saracens back-rower Vunipola, whose only appearance of late was a shock defeat against Ealing Trailfinders.

May has underwhelmed since rejoining the Cherry & Whites while Radwan has been a standout star for the high-flying Falcons. The Newcastle flyer, who was the top-scorer in the Championship last season, put the England winger on his ass twice as the two went head-to-head at Kingston Park recently.

He made his debut for the Cherry & Whites in 2013 as a 17-year-old, partnering World Cup winner Mike Tindall in the centre of an LV= Cup match, and has since gone on to prove himself as one of the brightest talents at Kingsholm.

A World Rugby U20 Championship winner in 2016, Thorley has pace, power and an eye for the try line.

Watson hasn’t been at his best for a while now, and Thorley deserves his chance to start a few games.

Joseph has been one of the standout strugglers in a very poor looking Bath side so far this season.

Meanwhile, Burrell has been been like a rampaging bull since making his return to the Premiership following a disappointing stint in that other sport.

Operating as the Falcons chief ball carrier in their opening two wins against Bath and Sale, Burrell is probably the closest human battering ram around to Manu Tuilagi.

Not the most hipster selection by any means, but someone who’d fit into the current system and make the team better.
