🚨 SHOCK SELECTION CALL FROM STEVE BORTHWICK! 🚨
England have named their team for the 2026 Six Nations opener against Wales, and the biggest talking point is impossible to ignore — Maro Itoje has been benched 😱
With the historic England vs Wales rivalry renewed for the 144th time, Steve Borthwick has made a bold leadership and tactical call by handing the captaincy to Jamie George, while opting for a 6–2 bench split and holding Itoje back as an impact replacement.
🏉 In this video, we break down:
• Why Maro Itoje starts on the bench
• What Jamie George’s captaincy means for England
• The logic behind England’s 6/2 bench split
• How George Ford & Alex Mitchell will control the game
• Whether Tommy Freeman at centre is a masterstroke or a risk
• England’s strengths — and potential weaknesses — against Wales’ kicking game
🔥 England are widely seen as Six Nations title contenders in 2026, but with France looming large, there is zero margin for error. Is this selection a statement of intent… or a gamble that could backfire?
