Rugby Union: James Haskell left out of England squad for Autumn series against Australia, Samoa and Argentina

James Haskell has been omitted from England's squad for next month's autumn series after losing out to rising Exeter star Sam Simmonds. Veteran Wasps flanker Haskell, who has 75 caps and toured New Zealand with the British and Irish Lions during the summer, has paid the price for a drop in form having started the season with a hand injury. Alongside emerging England back rows Sam Underhill and Tom Curry is Simmonds, who is present in an England squad for the first time after impressing for the Chiefs.
