Keighley Cougars ace Neil Lowe has received the call he’s been waiting for - the one that sends him to the World Cup.

Second-row Lowe is named in the 24-man squad of Scotland head coach Steve McCormack and heads out to Australia on Tuesday.

He is joined by former Keighley prop Oliver Wilkes and ex-Bulls hooker Ian Henderson.

The Scots have also called up Michael Robertson, the Manly winger who scored a sensational hat-trick in Sunday’s NRL Grand Final.

Scotland squad: Chris Armit (Canterbury Bulldogs), Danny Brough (Wakefield Wildcats – Captain), Dean Colton (Doncaster), Paddy Coupar (Edinburgh Eagles), Gavin Cowan (Wests Tigers), John Duffy (Widnes Vikings), Ben Fisher (Hull KR), Andrew Henderson (Castleford Tigers), Ian Henderson (Auckland Warriors), Kevin Henderson (Wakefield Wildcats), Jack Howieson (Sheffield Eagles), Paul Jackson (Huddersfield Giants), Wade Liddell (Brisbane Easts), Scott Logan (Canberra Raiders), Neil Lowe (Keighley Cougars), David McConnell (Leigh Centurions), Duncan McGilvery (Wakefield Wildcats), Iain Morrison (Widnes Vikings), Gareth Morton (Widnes Vikings), Mick Nanyn (Oldham), Lee Paterson (Widnes Vikings), Michael Robertson (Manly Sea Eagles), Jon Steel (Hull KR), Oliver Wilkes (Wakefield Wildcats).
