Wasps player Danny Cipriani dropped from England team
London Wasps player Danny Cipriani has been left out of England's team to play Scotland because of his recent behaviour that the Rugby Football Union (RFU) considered as "inappropriate".
Danny Cipriani, 20, was due to make his debut start for England on Saturday after being selected for the position of full-back.
The problem of Danny Cipriani's behaviour is said to have been an incident in which he was photographed leaving a London nightclub after midnight on Thursday morning.
The RFU says no additional punishment will be taken against Danny Cipriani, however, they have warned him about his behaviour in future.
England head coach Brian Ashton is reported to have explained: "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."
Danny Cipriani has, however, been included in the London Wasps team for their Premiership game at home to Harlequins on Sunday.
Iain Balshaw, who had been dropped to make way for Danny Cipriani, has now got his position in the team back again.
