I was listing what we will likely see with players returning.
Genge will hopefully be on the bench for England until Marler is fit. I certainly hope he's picked ahead of Nathan Catt. Catt was in the squad ahead of Genge before Marler got injured though.
Mikey Williams is in the England squad but I expect he will be available with Haskell, Wood, Clifford and Itoje as a flanker probably favoured by Jones. Teimana Harrison has stayed in the squads too despite some poor form for Saints and England.
Owen Williams won't have done his Wales chances any favours by signing for Gloucester ahead of a region. He might get on the bench but Sam Davies would be a more popular choice with most Welsh fans. I hope Owen gets the chance though, despite not progressing as far as I thought he could whilst here he has been a better player than Priestland and Anscombe whilst they were backing up Biggar.
Hamilton deserves to be ahead of O'Connor on form but I can't see it happening. Same with Worth and Tait for 15. Jack Roberts will stay around the match day 23 on current form and deservedly so. Harry Wells should start during the AWC, I thought he played really well in the earlier rounds. Charlie Thacker should be in the 23 for the next 2 weeks. How far is Croft away?
