England face tough France test at DW Stadium in Rugby League World Cup ...


Rob Burrow has recovered from a head knock he sustained in the win against

Fiji but will have further tests to confirm whether he is fit to face France

in Wigan on Saturday night. Ben Westwood, the second row, is also cleared to

play after escaping punishment for a challenge on Fiji’s Tariq Sims which

was put on report.



McNamara said: “We are pretty healthy but there are a few things to work out

regarding selection.



“We didn’t know our opposition until last night and we have to work out which

players best suit the opposition. The 17 selected this week will not

necessarily be the 17 in the semi-final if we get through.”



World Cup quarter-finals: Friday New Zealand v Scotland (Headingley,

8pm). Saturday Australia v USA (Wrexham, 1pm), England v France (Wigan,

8pm). Sunday Samoa v Fiji (Warrington, 3pm).
