England's men will host Samoa in a two-match series later this year - meeting for the first time since their dramatic World Cup semi-final.

Posting on Facebook, he thanked fundraisers for their help.
"You have achieved something genuinely incredible, and it’s an amazing story amongst the backdrop of other festivals falling to the current climate.
