Geraghty looks set for England call

SHANE GERAGHTY has made an irresistible case to run England’s back division alongside Jonny Wilkinson in the autumn Test matches.

Northampton star Geraghty, currently part of the England Saxons squad, is an obvious replacement for injured British and Irish Lions centre Riki Flutey.

England boss Martin Johnson has yet to announce who will fill vacancies created by shoulder injuries to Flutey and full-back Delon Armitage in the senior squad for November appointments with Australia, Argentina and New Zealand.
