The 28-year-old memorably rounded Jonah Lomu while playing for the Barbarians in 2002 but has only ten England caps to his name due to a string of injuries.

But after two years injury-free, Simpson-Daniel will give manager Martin Johnson a viable alternative to Bath giant Matt Banahan on the England bench.

Corbisiero meanwhile, comes in for Wasps’ Tim Payne who drops out of the squad with a sternum injury.

However, the 22-year-old New York-born prop, who has been used at both loosehead and tighthead this season, is unlikely to make his England debut in Saturday’s match at Twickenham, with David Wilson favourite to retain his place on the bench.

Both players started England Saxons' 20-11 defeat to the Ireland Wolfhounds on Saturday at Ravenhill.
