Bath Rugby prop David Wilson has been named among the England replacements for Saturday’s RBS 6 Nations decider against Wales at the Millennium Stadium (5pm).

And Wilson, who has been on the bench for all four of England’s 2013 championship matches so far, will be joined there by Toby Flood and Danny Care after the pair were replaced in the starting XV by Owen Farrell and Ben Youngs respectively.
