Anderson names 18-man Exiles squad to face England

Correspondent

Daniel Anderson has named his 18 man Exiles squad to take on England on Saturday.

Six players have withdrawn from the 22-man squad which was named last week, forcing Anderson to bring in Wigan’s Epalahame Lauaki.

Brett Finch, George Carmont, Lopini Paea, Louis Anderson, Luke O’Donnell, Michael Monaghan have all pulled out of the squad, mainly due to injuries.

This years’ squad includes 10 new debutants to the Exiles contest, with Scott Dureau set to make his first professional representative appearance.

Anderson will name one more player ahead of the game at Langtree Park.
