Brian Moore believes that England coach Stuart Lancaster is making the right call by replacing the injured Jonathan Joseph with Sam Burgess.

Former England hooker Brian Moore has insisted that he is not surprised to see Sam Burgess earn a starting spot in the team for Saturday's World Cup clash with Wales.

An injury to Jonathan Joseph has forced Stuart Lancaster to make a change to his side, and reports have suggested that Burgess will replace the Bath centre, while George Ford is expected to make way for Owen Farrell at fly-half.

Joseph is expected to be fit to return against Australia next Saturday.
