- Harlequins player called up by Eddie Jones on Tuesday
- Son of Michael Lynagh is also eligible for Australia and Italy
Louis Lynagh has one major concern about his first England training camp this weekend: what to wear. There have been a few faux pas in the past: Dylan Hartley would often recall how he once turned up in flip-flops, while Elliot Daly has not been able to shake the nickname “Briefcase” after arriving at Wasps in school uniform. But, if Lynagh’s fashion sense is anything like his finishing, he is likely to be fine.
The 20-year-old wing has made only 14 appearances for Harlequins but he has developed a knack for try-scoring, following up two in the Premiership final last season with another double at Newcastle last Sunday. Form like that and a name as famous as his was always likely to cause a stir, all the more so when his father – the 1991 World Cup winning Australia fly-half Michael – lamented on social media in June how, while the Wallabies and Italy had sounded his son out about his future intentions, the Rugby Football Union had not.
