Qualifying

Five teams (Australia, New Zealand, England, Papua New Guinea, and Canada) qualified automatically for the World Cup.

A round-robin tournament featuring the Cook Islands, Fiji, Samoa, and Tonga was to decide the sixth and final team.[4] However, the Fiji, Samoa, and Tonga withdrew at short notice due to various logistical issues; therefore, the tournament was scratched, and the Cook Islands qualified automatically.[5]

Pre-tournament matches

Before the World Cup it was announced that France would host England in two tests in Perpignan, and Papua New Guinea would host Australia in Port Moresby.[6][7]
