Dan Cole still delivering, still the boss for Leicester Tigers

Dan Cole was not selected for the England squad for a three-day training camp that starts on Sunday. Bath's Will Stuart and Tigers team-mate Joe Heyes were chosen as the No 3s. Cole impressed in Leicester's 41-21 defeat of Northampton last weekend. He was awarded the Man of the Match award.

Dan Cole was not selected for the England squad for a training camp that starts on Sunday. Bath's Will Stuart and Tigers team-mate Joe Heyes were chosen as the No 3s. Cole is the fourth-most capped player in England. He has a reputation for grumpiness. Toby Flood played with Cole for England and shared a house with him during his Leicester days. He's a very affable guy but he's willing to sacrifice a lot for his team. The 2019 World Cup will be his last appearance in an England shirt. His last cap came against Ireland in 2012.
