England has announced a squad for their World Cup warm-up match against Fiji this Friday.

Shaun Wane's 22-player lineup boasts six NRL players with Victor Radley, Dominic Young, Herbie Farnworth, Thomas Burgess, Elliott Whitehead and Luke Thompson all primed for the international exhibition.

This will be Victor Radley's first time donning the English stripes since his controversial decision to defect from Australia and the NSW Blues back in July.

Exciting outside backs, Young and Farnworth, are also set for their first appearance for England.
