"If Feyi-Waboso is ruled out, Elliot Daly would appear to be the most likely candidate to come on to the wing against Wales while Borthwick could also move Tommy Freeman from midfield and introduce Henry Slade or Max Ojomoh at centre. A more radical option would be to move Freddie Steward to the wing and select Marcus Smith, who has been named on the bench, at full-back."
"For Feyi-Waboso it would be a desperate shame given he is yet to appear for England against Wales, having had the opportunity to choose which of the two nations he would represent. He's really keen to be as good as he can be, said the defence coach Richard Wigglesworth, who confirmed the 23-year-old is a fitness concern. He's really coachable, takes feedback really well, wants to learn and he's got incredible physical commitment as well."
Immanuel Feyi-Waboso pulled up in training with a leg injury and was unable to complete England's session; medical staff are investigating the issue. If he is ruled out, Elliot Daly is the likeliest wing replacement while Tommy Freeman could move from midfield with Henry Slade or Max Ojomoh introduced at centre. A more radical reshuffle could see Freddie Steward shifted to the wing and Marcus Smith played at full-back. Feyi-Waboso has started England's autumn internationals and scored twice this season, and his fitness is a concern ahead of the Wales match.
