England Six Nations Squad 2025

Kenningham 100% deserves to be in the mix.

Cassius Cleaves might also be on the radar given he's a recent U20 grad.

Ah I forgot about Kenningham actually and I agree hes developed into a very good player. I personally rate him higher than Pearson so yes, I would include him.

The A team I want it used as a stepping stone for players - whether that's guys in the full squad who are not being used and you want to see how they perform outside of their club environment (e.g. AOF, Beard, maybe Roebuck) or fresh faces you want to see for the same reasons

Wouldn't mind seeing a cap limit on it tbh,
10 cap hard limit, or 5 in the past year
Keep it purely developmental, but keep the door open for guys like OHC or Dingwall who have gotten a couple of caps but continued to develop since getting dropped but you don't end up with like Ford dropping down to get minutes (.....or Ewels)

To be honest I'm just glad to see the A team back in operation. It's the stepping stone (taster) for a few lads to see if they can move up from Club to International. As long as it benefits the Seniors going forward I'm happy however it's used.

I want to see if Cleaves will get there, when he goes he's absolutely electric, definitely one to watch

Plus he's got a great name
