Shaun Wane names England 24-man squad
England head coach Shaun Wane has named a provisional 24-man squad for next Friday’s mid-season fixture against the Combined Nations All Stars at Warrington.
The squad, which will be reduced to 19 before the squad goes into camp next week, includes George Williams, who returns to England as a free agent following his release on compassionate grounds from Canberra Raiders.
2020 Steve Prescott Man of Steel winner Paul McShane has also been named and could make his England debut at the age of 31.
England Head Coach Shaun Wane says: “We have a good blend of youth, versatility and experience, and I have every confidence in whoever makes the final cut. I watch every Betfred Super League game, every week, at least once, and all of these players have earned the right to play for England.”
