"Noah Caluori, the 19-year-old Saracens wing, has been named in England's autumn internationals squad by Steve Borthwick. Caluori burst on to the Prem scene by scoring five tries against Sale on 18 October and, as England gear up for a busy November featuring four Tests, Borthwick has called up the uncapped youngster after initially inviting him to a training camp last week."
"Caluori made his second Prem start for Saracens in the defeat by table-topping Northampton on Friday. He had a considerably quieter night than the phenomenal display against Sale, and was given a severe defensive test by the Saints' all-court attacking game. However, his remarkable aerial ability was in evidence at Franklin's Gardens and, by turning to Caluori for his autumn squad, Borthwick has signalled that he sees potential for him to play at the 2027 Rugby World Cup in Australia."
Noah Caluori, 19, was selected in England's 36-player autumn internationals squad under head coach Steve Borthwick. Caluori scored five tries for Saracens against Sale on 18 October and was invited to a training camp prior to the squad announcement. The squad comprises 19 forwards and 17 backs and assembled at Pennyhill Park in Surrey. Caluori made his second Premiership start in a defeat at Northampton, endured heavy defensive pressure but displayed notable aerial ability at Franklin's Gardens. Borthwick indicated Caluori could be a prospect for the 2027 Rugby World Cup. Adam Radwan was omitted, Emeka Ilione is injured, and Tom Curry and Raffi Quirke return from injury.
