ENGLAND RUGBY LEAGUE: ALL THE RLWC08 ACTION ON LEEDSRHINOS.BIZ
Tony Smith has today announced his squad, with only one change in it, to take on Australia in England’s second Rugby League World Cup 2008 clash, which is to take place this Sunday.
Wigan’s Mark Calderwood has been called up for the squad after Leeds’ Lee Smith had been ruled out due to a foot injury he picked up in last weeks encounter with PNG, when he was a hat-trick hero for his country in Townsville.
Australia have only made one change too; Brisbane full back Karmichael Hunt has made it to the replacement bench at least, as Gidley suffered a knee injury against New Zealand. But they certainly controlled that game in the Telstra Dome - 30-6 was the final score.
England: Wellens (St Helens); Gardner (St Helens), Gleeson (Warrington), Senior (Leeds), Calderwood (Wigan); Pryce (St Helens), Burrow (Leeds), Peacock (Leeds, capt), Roby (St Helens), Graham (St Helens), Hock (Wigan), Ellis (Leeds), Sinfield (Leeds)
Replacements: McGuire (Leeds), Morley (Warrington), Fa'asavalu (St Helens), Wilkin (St Helens).
Australia: Slater (Melbourne); Monaghan (Canberra), Inglis (Melbourne), Folau (Melbourne), Tate (NZ Warriors); Lockyer (Brisbane, capt), Thurston (North Queensland); Civoniceva (Penrith), Smith (Melbourne), Price (NZ Warriors), Stewart (Manly), Laffranchi (Gold Coast), Gallen (Cronulla)
Replacements: Kite (Manly), Perry (Manly), Tupou (Sydney Roosters), Hunt (Brisbane).
