Six nations: Tom Curry, George Martin, completely training for England on the eve of the Scotland test | News of rugby
The English duo Tom Curry and George Martin returned to full training on the eve of Saturday’s conflict with six countries in the third round against Scotland in Twickenham.
Steve Borthwick’s compensation is set off on the massive weekend Calcutta Cup clashes off the back of the opening winner in Ireland in Dublin and a victory over France in Twickenham.
The return order Tom Curry was in top -notch form, but at last week’s training list was listed as “rehabilitation”, along with Martin in the second row of Martin, who managed a knee injury.

Daly, Steward could enter the full side for England; George, Chessum that is advocating for starts
Sky Sports News’ James Cole from Pennyhill Park …
“There are good news as far as the confirmed team is concerned, because both Flanker Tom Curry and Lock George Martin continued full training.
“Curry’s load was driven last week, he has no injuries as such, but George Martin has problems progressing.
“No 8 Alex Dombrandt was added to the training team after an impressive Harlequins performance against Saracens over the weekend, but Tom Willis from the back order after his impressive display against France will be well ejected.
“The other man who shone in that game was Fin Smith, a Northhampton player who first started for England and was a man from the match a few weeks ago, and will probably start again.
“The man he replaced at 10 was Marcus Smith, who started with a full back and did not have his best match against France. Does Steve Borthwick stick with him in full back or enter in a raised 15, such as Elliot Daly or Freddie Steward , just for things to pull on the back is something that England could consider this week.
“Delight, Jamie George and Ollie Chessum were particularly impressive and they will be asked to start against Scotland.”
