I can't say there is anything in there to surprise me. Let's hope he doesn't break any of our players.

Thought I got it off of the England site as well after seeing the tweet. Maybe I got an old one.

Edit- Yep, mine was 5th August, sorry for the confusion

Perhaps.  Looks like the training meeting they had after the lions, right at the start, Daly isn't listed as he was still on holiday.

No Matt Mullan, sad for him, but good for us as he'd only end up crippled.

Lots in the press about Marcuss Smith's call up, almost as if it was his first call up. My mistake putting the August list up shows it wasn't the first time that he was selected, I was away at the time so didn't see much of the press then, but don't recall as much fuss.

There was lots of fuss.  I suspect this time however it's a bit more of an official thing, and he's been doing well in games too, before he was completely unknown, now he's a regular in the AP.
