England Rugby name five Bath players in Six Nations squad

George Ford, Nathan Catt, Jonathan Joseph, Anthony Watson and Charlie Ewels have all been named in Eddie Jones' England squad for next month's Six Nations.

Semesa Rokoduguni, however, has not made the squad.

They join colleagues Luke Charteris and Toby Faletau who were both called up for Wales' squad on Wednesday.

Jones has picked a 34-man squad for the forthcoming Six Nations, which begins on February 4, with England opening up with a home match against France in the evening kick-off (16:50) on day one.

Ford has scored 68 points for England in the last five Grand Slams, with three tries, which makes him the highest-scoring Bath man in recent Six Nations history.

England will then play Wales on February 11 (again at 16:50) at the Milennium Stadium followed by Italy at home the following Sunday and Scotland at Twickenham the Sunday after that.

The Red Rose conclude their attempt at regaining the Grand Slam with a tricky away tie against Ireland on March 18. That one kicks off at 17:00, which makes it the last game of this year's Six Nations.
