Billy Slater, Cameron Smith, Valentine Holmes, Cooper Cronk, Michael Morgan, Josh Dugan and Boyd Cordner are some of the big names that are expected to feature prominently as Australia aim to defend their title.

England have named players such as Gareth Widdop, James Graham, Sam Burgess, Elliott Whitehead, Chris Hill, and Ryan Hall as they hope to upset the Kangaroos.

Australia will play England at 10pm Saturday.
