Saracens and England number eight Billy Vunipola will miss the rest of the domestic season after suffering a knee injury, and is a doubt for the 2023 World Cup in France. Vunipola picked up the injury during the first half of Saracens’ Heineken Champions Cup quarter-final defeat at La Rochelle on Sunday.
Maro Itoje has called on Premiership Rugby to halt the player exodus to France as he refused to rule out moving overseas when his Saracens contract expires next year.
Mike Brown supports the idea of central contracts for England players as a way to ease the burden on clubs operating in a bleak financial climate. Brown's own career will continue into the 2023-24 season when he will be 38 years old after he agreed a contract extension with Leicester, who have seen enough during five appearances to extend his initial short-term deal.
Billy Vunipola revealed that Steve Borthwick has been “very honest” with him over his England omission for the Six Nations but the Saracens No 8 remains determined to force his way back into the international fold.
England's policy of refusing to select overseas-based players for international duty is set to remain, according to Premiership Rugby chief executive Simon Massie-Taylor.
Central contracts for England internationals should be at the “top of the agenda” in negotiations over the future of the domestic game, according to the Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall.
Jamie George could be a doubt for England's Six Nations opener after suffering a suspected concussion in Saracens' Champions Cup defeat to Edinburgh.
Elliot Daly’s long-range penalty settled an entertaining London derby in Saracens’ favour, leaving Harlequins to rue what might have been. Take nothing away from their starting fly-half Tommy Allan but it is hard not to wonder whether Marcus Smith’s magic might have made the difference here against a Saracens side granted permission to pick all five of their England internationals. Of them Billy Vunipola excelled but based on game-time alone last season, his exclusion gave Harlequins all the more reason to be frustrated that Smith was not granted dispensation to play.
