LONDON // England coach Stuart Lancaster unveiled a new heavyweight front row to face renowned scrummagers Argentina when he announced his side to play the Pumas at Twickenham on Saturday.
Lancaster selected the trio of David Wilson, Dylan Hartley and Joe Marler, who all came off the bench during last week’s 20-13 win over Australia at Twickenham last weekend.
British and Irish Lions star Alex Corbisiero, fit after a knee injury kept him out the Wallaby match, had been tipped to replace now injured prop Mako Vunipola but found himself among the replacements when Lancaster announced his side on Thursday.
Instead Marler, as he’d done during last week’s match, replaced Vunipola.
“Joe Marler was excellent off the bench against Australia and merits his opportunity, as does David Wilson, who has been pushing hard for selection,” Lancaster said Thursday.
“Dylan gets a deserved chance at hooker with Tom Youngs on the bench after the safe arrival of his first child this (Thursday) morning. Rob Webber remains on standby.”
In the backs Ben Foden replaced Marland Yarde after the wing failed a fitness test on a hip injury on Thursday.

Labour dispute
The insured employee may still file an ILOE claim even if a labour dispute is ongoing post termination, but the insurer may suspend or reject payment, until the courts resolve the dispute, especially if the reason for termination is contested. The outcome of the labour court proceedings can directly affect eligibility.
