WORCESTER Rugby Club's Duncan Roke is included in England's squad for this weekend's Cardiff Sevens.

The Sixways full-back is called up after scoring a record 26 tries in National League One last season.

England flanker Pat San-derson returns to the side after recovering from knee and shoulder injuries that kept him out of action for long spells this season.

The party also includes five of the players -- Simon Amor, Phil Dowson, Ugo Monye, Rob Thirlby and Ben Gollings -- who helped England win the Brisbane and Hong Kong legs of this season's World Sevens Series.

There are also places for Sale No. 8 Magnus Lund, Bristol Shoguns scrum-half Paul Hodgson and Northampton's James Brooks.

Coach Joe Lydon said: "We've kept the core of the squad together and we're confident we'll be competitive," said Lydon.
