Morgan got included in the England EPS last week after a solid start to the season for the Scarlets.

Fa’asavalu has featured heavily for Quins this season after returning from the Rugby World Cup. The Samoan has great ability whilst ball carrying which is ideal for his side as they look to attack at every opportunity. He was signed for Rugby League side St Helens.

The Samoan international scored his first try for the Ospreys against Treviso after his summer switch from Super 15 side Crusaders. Fotuali’i will be hoping for more game time when the 6 Nations commences in early February.
