Exiles Head Coach Daniel Anderson has named a 25-man squad to pick from for next week’s second game against England in the International Origin Series 2012.

As with England, the Exiles agreed not to pick any more than three players from any Super League club, which added to the possibility of injuries from this weekend’s game has created the need for a larger squad.

Anderson said: “It is conceivable that with the short turnaround from the games this weekend some players won’t be available. We’ve attempted to satisfy some of the requests from clubs in a difficult period. There are no more than three players from any club, which accounts for many of the changes from game one.

“Also, many of the more mature members of the squad have found it challenging on their bodies to get ready when faced with three games in seven days.

Talking about the specific challenge of the second game, Anderson said “I hope we get better weather, I hope the crowd can get to watch a style of footie that better reflects Super League.

“We’ll pick a strong team but we only have three days to prepare so the game has its challenges. England have rested players, they’ll have four or five changes and we’ll have at least that, so it’s a different game this time.

“But I think the game will be exciting. England are one up so they may have more freedom to attack. Equally we have to win, so we’ll be going for it”.

The Exiles play England at the Galpharm Stadium, Huddersfield on Wednesday July 4.
