Singleton gets the nod as a replacement for Cowan-Dickie

ENGLAND summoned uncapped Worcester hooker Jack Singleton yesterday to join their tour of South Africa as injury cover for Luke Cowan-Dickie.

The Exeter front row supplied back-up to Jamie George in the series opener and, if he is ruled out, Singleton will be promoted straight on to the bench.
