Source-derived summary

The 2021 Men's Rugby League World Cup featured 16 international teams, with each consisting of up to a 24-man squad.

Group A

England

Head coach: Shaun Wane

England announced their 24-man squad on 30 September 2022. Debut call-ups were handed to Andy Ackers, Herbie Farnworth, Kai Pearce-Paul, Victor Radley, Marc Sneyd and Dom Young.

France

Head coach: Laurent Frayssinous

France announced their 24-man squad on 24 September 2022. Experienced players Théo Fages, Julian Bousquet, and Romain Navarrete were all unavailable due to injuries, as was Lucas Albert. Samisoni Langi qualified via 5-years residency in 2022 and made himself available for France rather than Tonga, who he represented at the previous two tournaments (although did not play a match in 2017).

Greece

Head coach: Steve Georgallis

Greece announced their 24-man squad on 15 September 2022. The squad includes players from the professional competitions and from the Greek domestic competition. Billy Tsikrikas was initially named in the squad but withdrew. He was replaced by Siteni Taukamo.
