Eddie Jones has named a 36-player England squad ahead of Saturday’s Six Nations match against Ireland at Twickenham (1645ko).
 
Bath's Sam Underhill, Nic Dolly and Alex Mitchell return to the squad for the first time since the 2021 Autumn Nations Series, where England won their three fixtures against Tonga, Australia and South Africa. 
 
Bath's uncapped Orlando Bailey and Harlequins Luke Northmore are also named in the squad.
  
Raffi Quirke suffered concussion in Sale Sharks’ defeat at Exeter Chiefs and is unavailable for selection.
 
Exeter Chiefs Jonny Hill, who has been undertaking rehab on a low limb stress injury since he arrived into camp, has returned to his club for the remainder of the tournament.
