Anthony Watson in line for England start?

By , Senior Reporter
A report claims that Bath Rugby wing Anthony Watson will start for England in this weekend's Autumn International meeting with South Africa.

Anthony Watson will reportedly be handed his first England start in this weekend's match against South Africa at Twickenham.

The Bath Rugby wing, who made his debut at international level in the 24-21 defeat at the hands of New Zealand last Saturday, is to replace the injured Semesa Rokoduguni in the starting XV, according to The Telegraph.

Watson's recent impressive form at club level since overcoming an ankle injury is said to have impressed coach Stuart Lancaster, who will turn to the youngster for England's latest Autumn International.

Tom Wood is also an injury doubt for the clash, with Wasps flanker James Haskell being retained.
