Head coach Brian McDermott has named his squad for England's final Rugby League World Cup group game against Papua New Guinea.
There were calls for Mikey Lewis to be handed a starting berth against France last time out, though the Hull Kingston Rovers man had to settle for being introduced from the bench.
Lewis looks set to be deployed in a similar role on Friday, with skipper George Williams and Harry Smith retaining their places in the halves.
Super League Man of Steel Brad O'Neill is dropped with Jez Litten taking his place at hooker, while Morgan Knowles, who missed England's first two games through injury, comes in at loose forward for Victor Radley.
There have been changes made by McDermott after announcing his squad, with Zach Eckersley initially being named in the starting XIII before losing his place to Matty Ashton, and it remains to be seen whether more changes are made.
With O'Neill out of the 19, Lewis may be called upon to give club team mate Litten a rest at hooker, with Litten impressing from dummy half in his cameo against France.
To have any chance of qualifying, England need a sizeable win against Papua New Guinea before hoping Tonga do them a favour on Sunday.
