Gillette 4 Nations teams support Poppy Appeal
All four teams involved in this weekend’s Gillette Four Nations fixtures will wear poppies on their jerseys in a show of support for Remembrance Day.
England, Australia and Wales will have poppies on their sleeves whilst the Kiwis will sport theirs on their chest.
England full-back Sam Tomkins said: "I'll be wearing my poppy with pride against New Zealand at Hull on Saturday, as will all the England players.
“We have worn poppies on our England jerseys for the last few years and it's entirely the right thing to do.
"Remembrance Day is very special and it is important that everyone does what they can to support this very worthy cause.
"As sportsmen we are often portrayed as heroes but the real heroes are the servicemen and women who have been involved in conflicts past and present. Supporting the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal is the least we can do."
