I kind of agree on Newman but in the flip side if he goes well and comes through injury free it could do him the world of good confidence wise and maybe Wane will tell him to sort his attitude out |

Or he gets injured and misses start of season for us, or goes of on one in England camp and brings undue attention to himself! |

Maybe but I don’t think it would be great of the club to deny him an England shirt when hes missed out in the last few years |

 England Hang On For Victory Over Tonga In the First TestKristian Woolf returned to the Totally Wicked Stadium, this time in charge of a Tongan side starting an historic three game test series against an England side under the control of Shaun Wane who was looking to banish thoughts of a disappointing World Cup last November.England gave debuts to rising stars Mikey Lewis and Harry Newman but were without regular skipper George Williams who will miss the opening two games through suspension, the skippers arm band being thrown in the direction of rugby prodigy Jack Welsby, captaining his international side for the first time, and on his home ground.The home side were the favourites with a six-point handicap on the coupon, the good crowd in St Helens with their fingers crossed that Tonga wouldn’t provide the shock and heartache that Samoa inflicted in the semi-final in November 2022.

Pleased with Mikey Lewis`s performance today.
Big test if he can maintain it.
Is Williams free to play next week?
Be a shame to drop Lewis after that performance.

“You are playing a game of football this afternoon but more than that you are playing for England, and more even than that, you are playing for right versus wrong. You will win because you have to win. Don’t forget that message from home. England expects every one of you to do his duty.”:1230.gif |

Hope Wane lets those playing well stay in the team, and drops those that don't. He seemed to have a team in mind at the world cup and didn't account for form through the tournament.
As for Newman, hopefully he gets an ego check from this series. He has potential if he stops believing his own hype, and improves his skills, especially team work!

I'm not sure what changes Wane can make with the players we don't have available.

I loved the moment in which Newman took Welsby aside to calm him down after tempers started to flare.

Maybe the message is getting through to him? He was like that in the last two games of the season to.
On the England game I thought he was solid id defence but hardly got any ball, conditions didn't help but though the game plan wasn't suited to his skills

Maybe if he stopped all the petulance, Welsby would start being able to cover kicks as a full back instead of sprinting to the other side of the field to the ball  |

 Wane Makes Two Changes For Second TestWane makes two changes to England squad for second Tonga clashWarrington Wolves winger Matty Ashton is set to make his second international appearance for England on Saturday, as Head Coach Shaun Wane makes two changes to his squad for the game against Tonga at Huddersfield’s John Smith’s Stadium.Ashton comes in for Tommy Makinson and Wolves teammate Ben Currie replaces Morgan Knowles – the St Helens pair having picked up wrist and thumb injuries respectively during last Sunday’s 22-18 victory over Tonga in the series opener at the Totally Wicked Stadium.
