WORCESTER flanker Mat-thew Cox has been named as a replacement for England Under 18s for their final international of the season against France in Castres on Sunday.
Last week Cox helped England win the Under 18 Home Unions Tournament in Gloucestershire, coming on as a replacement in the victory over Ireland, playing the full game against Scotland then switching to the second row for the title decider against Wales at Cheltenham last Friday.
Cox, who is normally a blindside, is a product of south Birmingham club Woodrush and is now at the academy at Sixways.
