FEATURE: A combined Four Nations team – with all four sides

With the Four Nations now just hours away, for this week’s Thursday XIII, we’re having a bit of fun with our fantasy team selection.

We’ve compiled what we reckon is the best combined team featuring all four competing nations – with at least three players in each side as the only rule! Naturally though, we’ve snuck in a fourth Englishman to make up the extra number and make the magic 13!
