England centre Henry Slade out of Argentina tour with hand injury
The Exeter Chiefs centre, who won his 73rd cap in England's 35-12 defeat of Los Pumas in La Plata, was hit hard early in the game but stayed the distance to help his side achieve a notable result.
He left Estadio Uno with his hand strapped and underwent a scan on Sunday which confirmed damage to his metacarpal. He will miss Saturday's game in San Juan as well as the match against the United States in Washington DC a week later.

Ex-ESPN host Trey Wingo rips into NFL quarterback Jayden Daniels' mom: 'Needs a hobby'
Ex-ESPN host Trey Wingo had some harsh words for Jayden Daniels' mom on Monday as she was spotted at Commanders training camp. Daniels' mother, Regina Jackson, is the passer's agent and business manager and is known to be protective of the former Heisman Trophy winner, as she previously indicated she didn't want her son to date. And after she briefly joined NFL Network's interview of her son from training camp, Wingo had a strong message for Daniels' mother. 'She needs a hobby,' Wingo wrote on X. Regina, who wore a t-shirt with her son's name on it, said she had not attended every day of training camp as Daniels described their relationship. 'She's always gon' be there to uplift me, but if I'm doing wrong, she gon' let me know,' he said. 'Even though I'm 24 years old, I'm still a grown man, but I still gotta listen to my mom at some point.' . @JayD__5 on how much his mom means to him ❤️ — NFL Network (@nflnetwork) August 2, 2025 Jackson became an NFL-certified agent last year and represents her son. However, she previously ruffled feathers with her comments in the Prime Video documentary 'The Money Game,' when she discussed her fear of women 'hooking' her son. 'Some girl's got a Jayden Daniels wall, and her mom says, 'You'll get him.' Someone's trying to hook him, but thank god he's got a mama like me - because it ain't happening.' She later walked back that stance on 'The Pivot' podcast. 'I'm putting it on record. My son can date, he can live freely, make his own decisions,' she said. 'However, with the relationship we have, he does value my opinion because when my kids were little, I did a lot for them and my kids saw that.' Jackson, though, also added that her son 'doesn't know the business world.' 'He doesn't know the predators or the vultures that could be out there. So he feels very comfortable in knowing that not only am I educated and qualified to do it, I'm also his mom.' Off the field, Jackson is often spotted with her son at public outings, as they attended the ESPYs together last year, and a Fanatics Super Bowl party together in February. She was even seen next to him as he danced at Brandon Aiyuk's wedding in April. Daniels had a stellar debut season last year as he won Offensive Rookie of the Year and led the Commanders to the NFC Championship Game. His sophomore season will begin against the Giants on September 7.

Moloney-MacDonald backs 'honest' Mitchell to lead England to glory
The 61-year-old former New Zealand men's boss took the reins at Allianz Stadium in 2023 and has since led his side to back-to-back Six Nations Grand Slams. England are currently the world's number one ranked side and are enjoying a 25-game unbeaten run stretching back to the 2022 final, in which New Zealand became world champions. But this time around, winger Moloney-MacDonald feels Mitchell has the squad in the right frame of mind to win a trophy that has eluded them since 2014. 'John Mitchell has been an absolute game changer for us,' she said, as part of a new LG OLED TV collaboration ahead of this summer. 'It is always about having the right coach at the right time and he is the coach we needed at this time. 'He is an incredibly honest person. He is himself and he does silly things which makes him more human. It means that we can do silly things, and it reduces the expectation on each of us to be perfect. (Image: Richard Washbrooke) 'Naturally we're all incredibly competitive, but I think the way that he conducts himself, he drives high standards, he wants us to be the best version of ourselves, but he also recognises that comes with making mistakes along the journey. He values the mistakes and the errors as much as he does the bits that we get right. 'That is huge for us as a team. To get to a new place where we are even better than we already are, know that we can make mistakes, that we can learn from them, and we can be better for it.' Moloney-MacDonald is hoping England's exploits on the pitch this summer can take the women's game to new heights, a task that will be aided by all matches being broadcast on free-to-air television. And the 29-year-old is looking forward to her sport having elevated visibility across the country. 'The live free-to-air TV is huge because you pick up so many more fans,' continued Moloney-MacDonald. 'The biggest barrier that we face in women's rugby is getting people to watch it. 'I've never really heard someone say they watched [women's rugby], and they hated it. It is always, they watched it, they loved it, and they were surprised they did. 'Being live in the middle of the day is going to be massive because people can just easily pop it on TV and they will see us. It will bring new people to the game.' LG is helping the nation get closer to the action with LG OLED TVs. Life's Good for sport fans as LG's leading technology provides an unmatched immersive sporting atmosphere thanks to incredible OLED picture quality, Motion Pro technology for the smoothest action possible and unbelievable soundbar surround sound to bring the stadium feeling home. The action this summer will also provide Moloney-MacDonald with the chance to build on her recent run in the side and put her recent injury woes behind her. The Exeter Chiefs star has spent two lengthy spells out with neck injuries in recent years, admitting she considered retirement and was left 'terrified to be near a rugby pitch'. But now back to full fitness, she is ready to make up for lost time having missed the most recent tournament three years ago. 'I love being around the girls, that is where you want to be,' she added. 'You want to be pushing through the hard work together because you come out stronger as a team. 'I've loved being back and hopefully I can put my best foot forward.' Members of the Red Roses England women's rugby team joined a recent training session with LG and girls from Turing House School in Whitton, Richmond as part of the leading TV manufacturer's ongoing partnership with the RFU. The LG All In Pledge encourages people to engage and watch women's sport. Together we can grow support through fandom and audience numbers to inspire new players to pick up the sport themselves, as watching changes everything. For more information, go to
