Hendre Fourie has been called up to the England squad for their World Cup warm-up match against Ireland in Dublin on Saturday.

The Sale flanker comes in after Tom Wood was ruled out through injury.

The 31-year-old will start on the bench for England's final warm-up game before they fly out to New Zealand.

Fourie's inclusion is only temporary, however, as he wasn't named in Martin Johnson's final 30-man World Cup squad.
