England Secure Series Whitewash Over Tonga With England already having the series win under their belts, Headingley was the venue where they would seek to turn the screw, and deepen the pain, by making it a series whitewash against a Tongan side who arrived on our shores full of hope that they might cause an upset.
Shaun Wane had controversially swapped man of the series Mikey Lewis for returning skipper George Williams, the Hull KR man not included in the eighteen with additional changes seeing Currie in for the injured King and Mulhern for Radley.
Tonga also made a number of changes, the most notable being the return of St Helens star Konrad Hurrell to bolster the centres.
England were still favourites for the win, but never underestimate the pride and passion of a south pacific islander.
