Peacock eyes third World Cup

The Leeds Rhinos front row forward will win his 11th England cap - to go with his 26 Great Britain appearances - when he leads the national side against Bobbie Goulding's France in Paris on Saturday week.
"I look after myself physically," said the 31-year-old, who made his England debut against Russia in the 2000 World Cup. "And, as sport science gets better, it enables you to play longer. If I'm playing well enough, I don't see why it can't be an aim of mine."
Peacock's passion to represent his country was not dimmed by England's disappointing performances in Australia last year, where they suffered a record defeat by Australia and lost back-to-back matches to eventual winners New Zealand.
"I'd have played for England the week after to try and put things right," he added.
"I'll always enjoy playing for England. It's a fantastic job."
