England coach Clive Woodward has made
three changes, from the side that defeated Scotland, for Saturday’s RBS Six Nations match against Ireland at
Twickenham.

Scrum-half Matt Dawson, lock Steve Borthwick and wing-forward Joe Worsley come back into the side for Andy Gomarsall, Danny Grewcock and Chris Jones respectively while Leicester flanker Neil Back, has been recalled to the bench as has Gloucester wing James Simpson-Daniel.
Gomarsall and Jones are named on the replacement bench but Grewcock misses out with an Achilles injury which leaves Jones, number 6 against Scotland, as cover for the second-row.
