England recall Ashton
15 Nov 2012
Wing Chris Ashton will start against Australia at Twickenham this Saturday.
Ashton replaces Ugo Monye in what is the only change to the team that beat Fiji last week.
Charlie Sharples will, however, move to the left wing to accommodate Ashton, who prefers to play on the right.
England – 15 Alex Goode, 14 Chris Ashton, 13 Manusamoa Tuilagi, 12 Brad Barritt, 11 Charlie Sharples, 10 Toby Flood, 9 Danny Care, 8 Thomas Waldrom, 7 Chris Robshaw (c), 6 Tom Johnson, 5 Geoff Parling, 4 Tom Palmer, 3 Dan Cole, 2 Tom Youngs, 1 Joe Marler.
Subs: 16 David Paice, 17 David Wilson, 18 Mako Vunipola, 19 Joe Launchbury, 20 Tom Wood, 21 Ben Youngs, 22 Owen Farrell, 23 Mike Brown.

Can’t stand this guy. I hope Tuilagi smashed his smug face in again

Hopefully he gets some ball, the wings have had hardly any this year.
