NORTHAMPTON, ENGLAND - FEBRUARY 13: Luther Burrell of Northampton is tackled by Shane Geraghty of London Irish during the Aviva Premiership match between Northampton Saints and London Irish at Franklins Gardens on February 13, 2016 in Northampton, England

England have recalled Northampton Saints star Luther Burrell ahead of Saturday's rugby union Six Nations clash with Ireland at Twickenham. The big centre replaces Ollie Devoto, who suffered a concussion playing for club side Bath. There’s also bad news for Josh Beaumont who will miss out after dislocating his shoulder during Sale's loss against Worcester on the weekend.
