HULL KR duo Peter Fox and Shaun Briscoe have been named in the England squad to face Australia in Saturday's Four Nations final.

Briscoe has been named as full-back for the fourth successive game while Fox, who scored twice in the 20-12 win over New Zealand last week is named on the wing.

England coach Tony Smith has stuck with the side and the same subs that reached the final with last Saturday's win over the defending world champions Kiwis.
