SHAUN BRISCOE: Looked nervous in a shambolic first half, and withdrawn after 54 minutes. 5.

TOM BRISCOE: Rarely had the chance to shine until scoring his try three minutes from the end. 6.

LEE SMITH: Scored the game's first try, but otherwise it was a quiet outing. 5.

MICHAEL SHENTON: At fault for France's first try and struggled to impose himself. 5.

RYAN HALL: Never got into the game until scoring his 90-metre interception try. 6.

DANNY McGUIRE: Showed some nice touches without re-producing his Leeds form. 6.

RICHIE MYLER: Looked uncertain in the first half but demonstrated his try-scoring potential with two quickfire scores to spark the fightback. 6.

ADRIAN MORLEY: Some trademark no-nonsense stuff set a sterling lead for the pack. 6.

SCOTT MOORE: Withdrawn midway through the first half after giving an interception away. 5.

JAMIE PEACOCK: Never stopped working - without reaching his usual heights. 6.

GARETH ELLIS: Played the first 70 minutes as he gradually got to grips with the English conditions once more. 7.

SAM BURGESS: England's best player in the first half, and nearly rewarded with a try. 7.

KEVIN SINFIELD: Looked a shadow of his form for Leeds but kicked five goals from six attempts. 5.

Subs

JAMES GRAHAM: Injected some vigour when he was introduced midway through the first half. 7.

JAMES ROBY: Worked hard to inspire his side but without touching anything like his best form. 6.

KYLE EASTMOND: Introduced for his debut on 54 minutes and went to full-back, setting up the final try for Briscoe. 6.

BEN WESTWOOD: Solid, if unspectacular - much like England overall. 5.
