England Vs Samoa Test Series : Wed Oct 16, 2024 5:19 pm  

Shaun Wane has confirmed his 24 man squad for the 2 test series Against Samoa this Autumn.

Harry Newman has been selected Wane seems to like him even after a disappointing season with us.

Personally hope we have a 17 of

1. Welsby
2. Young
3. Currie
4. Farnworth
5. Ashton
6. Williams
7. Lewis
8. Burgess
9. Clark
10. Lees/ Thompson
11. Nsemba
12. Pearce-Paul
13. Radley

14. Walker
15. Smithies
16. Havard
17. Mckmeeken

I'd imagine Wane will go with his Wigan favourites with the likes of Liam Marshall Harry Smith & John Bateman getting in.

I think I might grab a late ticket for the 2nd game at HQ hopefully it's two high quality games Samoa have a very skilled team hopefully Palasia gets some game time (stay injury free as well) I'm backing England to get 2 victory's

11 out of 17 with past or present link to Wigan, so it's probably accurate

Does that include Radley who jumped in when Bentley was having a go at Wane?

Smithies isn't in the matchday squad.

Lewis on the bench, as expected

Good half from England. Really dominant. I'm surprised the commentators seem to think Samoa are struggling with the interpretation of the ruck. I think it's being reffed closer to an NRL game than an SL game, it's much quicker.
