FOURTEEN Wasps players have been included in Martin Johnson's revised Six Nations and Saxons squads announced this morning, more than any other Guinness Premiership club.

James Haskell, Tom Palmer, Tim Payne, Tom Rees, Simon Shaw, Phil Vickery, Danny Cipriani, Riki Flutey and Paul Sackey are in the Elite squad, while George Skivington, Joe Ward, Rob Webber, Joe Worsley and Dom Waldouck are named in the Saxons.

Johnson takes his Elite players to Portugal for a week-long training camp on January 25 before Six Nations games against Italy (Feb 7), Wales (Feb 14), Ireland (Feb 28), France (March 15) and Scotland (March 21).

The Saxons play Portugal at Sale (Jan 25) before meeting Ireland A in Dublin the following weekend (Feb 6).
