SUPER LEAGUE Grand Finalists Wigan and St Helens lead the way in Stuart Barrow’s regional squads ahead of this season’s second Origin fixture.

The game will be played on Saturday (October 18) at Oldham’s Boundary Park, with Lancashire keen to follow up their dominant 50-8 win at Sewell Group Craven Park in August.

The Red Rose squad features 10 Wigan players, including newly-crowned Woman of Steel Eva Hunter, while Saints have seven players in that squad as well as four representing Yorkshire – including Amy Hardcastle, who will make her playing comeback after suffering a broken fibula in June.

York Valkyrie have five players selected for Yorkshire, with both Evie Sexton and Izzy Bibby set to make their county debuts.

The Lancashire versus Yorkshire clash will be streamed live on the England Rugby League YouTube channel with entry to Boundary Park free.
