Its been 46 years since Englands last success in a major rugby league tournament but the appointment of Wayne Bennett as coach and the return of prodigal son Sam Burgess has the Four Nations hosts daring to dream.Bennetts men will open their tournament against defending champions New Zealand in front of a sell-out crowd in Huddersfield on Saturday (0030 AEDT Sunday) fielding one of their strongest-ever line ups.Burgess leads an outstanding pack alongside brothers Tom and George, James Graham, Mike Cooper, the Canberra duo of Josh Hodgson and Elliot Whitehead in addition to outstanding Warrington prop Chris Hill.New Zealand are currently the No.1 ranked rugby league team in the world but were well beaten by the Kangaroos in Perth earlier this month and 12 months ago lost a three-match series to England - albeit with an under-strength side.They also boast a poor record in the UK winning just two of their past 10 encounters against Great Britain or England and have a rookie coach in David Kidwell at the helm following Steve Kearneys appointment by the Warriors last month.Kidwell has kept faith with the side that performed poorly in Perth and assistant coach Quentin Poching said the players and staff know they let themselves down against Australia.We made some errors as coaches going into the Perth Test and weve had a good look and reflected on that, Poching said.Weve ttried to get some clarity about how wed like to play the game.ddddddddddddThe English have their strength in their pack so well do some things in a way that will break up the opposition and cause them some problems.England still have bad memories of the 2013 World Cup semi-final at Wembley where Shaun Johnsons magical last-second try and winning kick broke English hearts.Bennett, who alongside Kearney helped the Kiwis to glory in the 2008 World Cup, knows full well not to under-estimate Kidwells side.Theyre a talented rugby league nation who know how to play the game and use the ball, Bennett said.Theyve got a big forward pack, theyre very mobile and theyve some quality players. Well have to stop them there and we give ourselves a chance if we can do that.Bennett finalised his final 17 on Friday with Gareth Widdop and Luke Gale to continue as the halves pairing after impressing in last weeks 40-6 win over France in Avignon.I was pleased with the way the players conducted themselves last week in France and the hard work they put in, Bennett said.Theres things weve looked at in the game and worked on this week. The boys know the pressure and the intensity will rise as we get closer to Saturday - its a challenge were all looking forward to. ' ' '
