Junior Nsemba, August 6, 2024

WIGAN duo Junior Nsemba and Liam Marshall are the two uncapped players named in England head coach Shaun Wane’s 24-man squad for the upcoming two-Test series against Samoa.

Nsemba and Marshall, who helped their side clinch an historic quadruple in their Grand Final win over Hull KR on Saturday, are joined by team-mates Ethan Havard, Luke Thompson and Harry Smith.

England will face the Samoans in Wigan on October 27 for the first time since their stunning golden-point loss in the World Cup semi-final at the Ashburton Gove in November 2022, then again in Leeds on November 2.
