England's rugby league team will head into their upcoming World Cup match against France with an unchanged roster. Despite a recent defeat at the hands of Tonga, head coach Brian McDermott has decided to retain the same group of players for the fixture in Perth this Saturday.

The decision signals a vote of confidence from the coaching staff in the current squad's ability to perform. England is looking to bounce back from the loss to Tonga, which has placed pressure on the team to secure a victory to keep their tournament campaign on track. The match against France is viewed as a critical opportunity for the team to regain momentum and demonstrate their competitive potential in the tournament. No further changes to the tactical approach or the starting lineup have been announced at this time.
