Sale's Tommy Taylor added to England training squad
Sunday 13 March 2016 19:58, UK
Sale Sharks hooker Tommy Taylor has been added to England's training party for the Grand Slam decider against France.
A total of 32 players assembled at England's Pennyhill Park base in Surrey, with Taylor replacing Saracens No 2 Jamie George.
George was ruled out of the last two matches of England's Six Nations campaign with a bicep injury, with Exeter hooker Luke Cowan-Dickie replacing him in the squad that beat Wales 25-21 on Saturday.
Taylor, who is joining Wasps next season, is yet to make his England Test debut.
That result, combined with Scotland's win over France on Sunday, meant England were crowned champions with one game remaining.
But they can still claim a first Grand Slam since 2003 next Saturday, when they travel to Paris to play the French.
Updated England squad:
Forwards (19): Kieran Brookes, Dan Cole, Luke Cowan-Dickie, Jack Clifford, Dave Ewers, Dylan Hartley, James Haskell, Paul Hill, Maro Itoje, George Kruis, Matt Kvesic, Joe Launchbury, Joe Marler, Matt Mullan, Chris Robshaw, Ed Slater, Tommy Taylor, Billy Vunipola, Mako Vunipola.
Backs (13): Mike Brown, Danny Care, Elliot Daly, Ollie Devoto, Owen Farrell, George Ford, Alex Goode, Jonathan Joseph, Jack Nowell, Semesa Rokoduguni, Manu Tuilagi, Anthony Watson, Ben Youngs.
