Liam Marshall and Junior Nsemba set for England squad spots to face Samoa
LIAM Marshall and Junior Nsemba are set to cap their quadruple glory with England call-ups.
The Wigan pair are still celebrating Saturday’s Grand Final win over Hull KR, which sealed a historic awesome foursome of World Club Challenge, Challenge Cup, League Leaders’ Shield and Super League crown.
Now it is understood they will both be named in national boss Shaun Wane’s final squad for the Test series against Samoa, which is revealed today.
Back rower Nsemba was overlooked for the mid-season international in France because of a lack of experience.
But the 20-year-old has played his way into the two matches with a string of dominant domestic performances.
And winger Marshall is understood to have got his reward for a season that saw him score an astonishing 35 tries in 33 matches.
It may also see him finally earn an England cap after playing against Fiji in 2022 – a match for which they were not awarded.
Marshall, 28, is set to join NRL star Dom Young as a wing option for Wane as he chases revenge for the World Cup semi-final loss two years ago.
