England's Manu Tuilagi has been ruled out of Saturday's Guinness Six Nations clash with Scotland at BT Murrayfield.

The Lions centre picked up a groin strain in last Sunday's 24-17 defeat to France in Paris.

But head coach Eddie Jones expects him to be in contention for the match against Ireland at Twickenham later this month.

"He has got a slight low-grade adductor strain," Jones confirmed at his press conference this lunchtime.

"But hopefully he will be fit for Ireland, which is very good news - outstanding news."
