ENGLAND ANNOUNCE TEAM FOR SERIES DECIDER

Written by STAFF WRITERS, November 13, 2015
ENGLAND coach Steve McNamara has made two changes to his 19-man line-up ahead of Saturday’s third Test against New Zealand at Wigan’s DW Stadium.

Halfback Matty Smith and winger Jermaine McGillvary have been named, replacing Leroy Cudjoe and Ben Westwood.

Smith hasn’t played for England since last year’s Test against the Kiwis in Dunedin.

McGillvary, who finished the season as the Super League’s top tryscorer, is in line to make his international debut.

“We have had a great week with our preparation and the players are ready to take on a strong New Zealand side,” McNamara said.

“The players are well aware of the importance of the game and the improvements we have to make from our previous matches to give ourselves every chance of beating New Zealand.

“We will have to be at our best to win, but we’ll relish the pressure of playing against a quality team in front of a full house at Wigan.”
