Wilkinson faces chop from Ashton

JONNY WILKINSON and Lesley Vainikolo could be the high-profile casualties from England’s Murrayfield horror show.

Fly-half superstar Wilkinsonhas never been dropped by his country but so poor was his general play against Scotland that England head coach Brian Ashton needs to assess the exciting alternative of Danny Cipriani — while Charlie Hodgson, a replacement against Scotland, will also be in the selection mix.

Originally picked at full-back for Murrayfield, Cipriani lost his place when he was pictured leaving a London night-spot just after midnight last Thursday.
