We assess the selection dilemmas facing Eddie Jones ahead of the autumn internationals against South Africa, Fiji, Argentina and Australia.Front rowEnglands front row for the autumn internationals look to be pretty set in stone. With Dylan Hartley continuing as captain, his place in the hooker role is as close to assured as possible, with Jamie George likely to continue as his deputy. Either side of him will be prop duo Dan Cole and Mako Vunipola. While Cole continues to be the cornerstone of the England pack, the Fiji game could give Jones an opportunity to hand a long-awaited debut to Harlequins Kyle Sinckler, who many champion as Coles successor. Mako Vunipola breaks away to score for Saracens against Scarlets On the loosehead side, Vunipola has been impressing at Saracens, where his often under-fire scrummaging game has shown improvements, while his work around the park has not let up. Looking to unseat him will be the returning Joe Marler, providing England with a healthy battle for jerseys.Second rowJoness hand has been somewhat forced in this area with injuries ruling out Saracens duo George Kruis and Maro Itoje.The men most likely to fill their places are Joe Launchbury and Courtney Lawes, no strangers to starting for their country. Joe Launchbury is expected to start in the opening test against South Africa Question marks remain over who will fill the space on the bench. Will England opt for the experienced head of Dave Attwood to come on if needed, or will Jones use this opportunity to blood young gun Charlie Ewels who has shone for Bath this season?Back rowThe biggest decision for Jones lies in the makeup of his back row. An area depleted by injuries to James Haskell, Jack Clifford, Sam Jones, Mike Williams and Maro Itoje, the big question of who will wear the No 7 shirt remains. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ￡6.99. No contract Chris Robshaw appears to be Joness choice at number six but has refused to rule out the possibility of the former captain filling in on the openside.Should Tom Wood find himself called upon, the Northampton man will be keen to prove a point, having had his work rate previously questioned by Jones, who described him as distinctly average. Eddie Jones faces a dilemma in the back row as James Haskell (middle) is ruled out through injury At No 8, England have Billy Vunipola, Ben Morgan and Nathan Hughes all battling it out for a spot, however, Jones has not ruled out the possibility of flexibility in his back row.Speaking at the squad announcement, Jones said: Billys not a six, hes an eight. I dont think weve got a jumper big enough at 6 to fit him!Ben Morgan and Nathan can definitely play six for us. So, as you can see weve got great competition with those three guys at eight. Were talking about an injury crisis but weve got those three guys at eight.At six weve got Chris Robshaw, Nathan Hughes, Ben Morgan and Tom Wood. At seven weve got Teimana Harrison, Tom Wood and possibly Nathan Hughes. Out of every situation comes a lot of positivity.Half backs and centresLike the front row, this is an area where it is unlikely many changes will be made. Ben Youngs and Danny Care will battle it out for the starting scrum-half berth, while Jonathan Joseph appears to have cemented himself as Englands go-to outside centre.Despite his eye-catching form at fly-half for his club, Farrell looks set to take on the duties at inside centre in a familiar pairing with George Ford, providing Eddie Jones with the best of both attack and defence in his midfield. Owen Farrell (right) and George Ford (middle) are expected to continue as inside centre and fly-half respectively Also named in the squad is Luther Burrell. The Northampton centre will be keen to eradicate his shaky performance in the first Test in Australia, which led to him being withdrawn after just 29 minutes.Another option for Jones is to throw a new name into the mix, with the relatively inexperienced trio of Ben Teo, Elliot Daly and Henry Slade also named, however, unless injuries or poor form hit the most likely option is that the current axis will remain.Outside BacksInjuries to Jack Nowell and Anthony Watson have opened the door for the returning Jonny May and Marland Yarde on the England wing, with Jones singling out the 24-year-old Harlequin before Englands series in Australia.Marland is close to our quickest wing, said Jones. Maybe Anthony Watson shades him, but he has got power and he is raw. Marland Yarde celebrates scoring a try in the first Test against Australia He hasnt had a lot of experience, he hasnt had a lot of coaching, and hes very coachable.He is a bit of a character. He has probably blown a bit of his career by being too big for his boots. Hes back down to earth now and has the potential to be a really special player for us.At full-back, Mike Brown is expected to continue but he has come under pressure for the No 15 jersey from 2015/2016 Premiership player of the season Alex Goode, who has continued to shine at the back for Saracens. Brown has started in all nine of the Tests in which Jones has been in charge, and it is expected this will continue going into the autumn.You can watch Premier League and EFL Cup football, plus Englands tour of Bangladesh and the Mexican Grand Prix on Sky Sports.

I think weve been having chances and were putting the puck in the net the last few games. I think tonight we got a little puck luck. I think we earned our chances and youre not going to lose much when you score six goals so that was good for us.Wilson got his third of the season 2:02 into the second to tie it. Stationed in front of Lundqvist, Wilson corralled a cross-ice pass from Kessel and fired a forehand shot.Crosby put the Penguins ahead 2:56 later by redirecting Ian Coles point shot. Cole had intercepted Mats Zuccarellos clearing attempt inside the blue line to start the counter attack.Kessel increased Pittsburghs lead to 3-1 with a wrist shot over Lundqvists left shoulder at 10:12, and Crosby pushed the advantage to 4-1 2:45 later with his second of the game and NHL-leading 14th of the season. Crosby and Sheary broke in on a 2-on-1 with McDonagh defending, and Crosbys attempted pass deflected off of McDonaghs stick and fluttered over Lundqvists paddle.We gave them some chances, Marc Staal said. Just an avalanche we couldnt stop.Following Crosbys second goal, New York coach Alain Vigneault replaced Lundqvist with Antti Raanta.The goaltending change didnt work, as Sheary wristed his fourth goal of the season with 3:18 left. Cullens fourth of the season with 6:55 left in the third ended the scoring.Raanta finished with 19 saves on 21 shots.Pittsburgh may have been sparked by a first-period incident involving McDonagh, Sheary and Crosby.ddddddddddddCrosby dropped his gloves and challenged McDonagh after New Yorks captain drove Sheary into the half wall. McDonagh had his jersey pulled over his head during the tussle, and officials assessed McDonagh a five-minute major for boarding and Crosby got a two-minute minor for roughing.I saw (Sheary) kind of get in the numbers, Crosby said. I just tried to stick up for him. Those are hits that sometimes happen fast and I dont think (McDonagh) was targeting (him) by any means.Were a team. We want to stick together, and I was just trying to stick up for him.The Penguins didnt score on the extended power play but did generate three shots and their pressure kept the Rangers from being able to implement and sustain their attacking style of play.New York led after Rick Nashs power-play goal 4:22 into the game. Nash poked a loose puck past a sprawled Murray for his ninth of the season, five seconds after Evgeni Malkin was assessed a two-minute minor for tripping J.T. Miller in the neutral zone.New York went 1 for 3 on the man advantage while killing all three Pittsburgh power plays.New Yorks 17 shots were a season-low. Zuccarello ended the nearly 24-minute shot drought with a backhander with 3:45 left in the game.I cant explain to you at this time exactly what happened, Vigneault said. Obviously Im disappointed.
