He hasn't played a game of football in two years but former Kangaroos superstar Greg Inglis<\/a> has already been pencilled in for a big representative fixture in June.<\/p>\n

Inglis, who turned 34 recently, is on the comeback trail with English club Warrington, who open the new Super League season this weekend.<\/p>\n

But Inglis is in doubt for the game against Castleford with a nagging hamstring injury.<\/p>\n

That hasn't stopped British officials pushing for Inglis to play for a Combined Nations All Stars team in June.<\/p>\n

Eager to sell tickets for the game, the Brits are desperate for the former Storm and Rabbitohs star to play against Britain's finest.<\/p>\n

Fellow Australians James Maloney, Josh Reynolds, Joel Thompson and Bevan French are also expected to be chosen in the All Stars team, as well as several Kiwis and Pacific Islanders.<\/p>\n

The team will be coached by former Kangaroos coach and four-time NRL premiership winner Tim Sheens.<\/p>\n

Sheens and Inglis know each other well, having worked together for the Kangaroos in many campaigns when the star fullback was the the peak.<\/p>\n

"I won't be putting any pressure on Greg but it would be great to have him in there," Sheens told Wide World of Sports.<\/p>\n

"There are over 100 players to choose from so we should come up with a competitive team."<\/p>\n
