Newcastle prop Jon Golding has joined the England Saxons squad in place of his club team mate David Wilson.

Wilson yesterday received a one week suspension from the Six Nations Disciplinary Committee. The ban means he will be unable to take his place on the replacements bench for England Saxons match against Italy A this Saturday in Ragusa, Sicily (kick off 6.15pm local time).
