LONDON (Reuters) - England coach Stuart Lancaster has dropped Chris Ashton from his squad for the November internationals and handed a first call to Fiji-born wing Semesa Rokoduguni, while Jonathan Joseph gets another chance to secure a berth in the centres.

Danny Cipriani and Freddie Burns were also left out, as Stephen Myler joined Owen Farrell and George Ford as the three flyhalves in the 33-man squad, which is likely to be tweaked after the next weekend's matches.
