England Retain Four Bath Rugby Personnel

Four Bath Rugby players have been retained by Eddie Jones for the rest of the first week of England training for the RBS 6 Nations.

Ollie Devoto, George Ford, Jonathan Joseph and Anthony Watson will all remain in camp at Pennyhill Park, whilst Semesa Rokoduguni and Henry Thomas will return to Bath.
 
Devoto, a somewhat surprise inclusion in Eddie Jones' plans, has been retained by the Australian coach, along with fellow backs Ford, Watson and Joseph.
 
The news comes as a blow to winger Semesa Rokoduguni, who was called up into the national set-up as cover following the conclusion of the disciplinary case of Saracens winger Chris Ashton.
