    Cipriani dropped

    Before he had even started....

    Cipriani axed from England team

    Danny Cipriani has been dropped from England's team to face Scotland because of what the Rugby Football Union has described as "inappropriate behaviour".
    The 20-year-old Wasps player, who had been handed the full-back position, was set to make his first England start.

    The matter is believed to revolve around Cipriani being pictured leaving a London nightclub soon after midnight on Thursday morning.

    Iain Balshaw, who was dropped to make way for Cipriani, is recalled.

    The RFU say no further disciplinary action will be taken against Cipriani but he has been warned and advised about his future conduct.

    England head coach Brian Ashton said: "I have taken the decision regarding Danny and the matter is now closed. I will keep an open mind on selecting him for future games."

    Cipriani will not travel to Scotland with the England squad later on Thursday.

    Balshaw's place on the replacements bench has been taken by Sale fly-half Charlie Hodgson.
    A lot of people run a race to see who is fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into exhausting pace, and then at the end, punish himself even more.

      Young kid is told he is going to get his first england start, goes out to celebrate, gets photographed while out, gets dropped.

      A tad harsh if you ask me. I would tell England to jog on in the future, or as an alternative take up a good sport. Especially as the lad is possibly going to be one of the best around in a few years,
