Does anyone know if there's a youth international in St Helens in December? I heard something a few weeks ago but I can't remember the details.

I think there's an England Acadamy v Australia game at Leigh in December not sure about St Helens

That may well be it. I was asked if I'd like to go but I won't be flying back till the 23rd.

Yeah England Academy play the Australia Institute of Sport at LSV on Sunday December 4th @ LSV

Excellent. I'll let my dad and brother know. Thanks.

What a great game it was too. Well done to both sides for making it such a treat to watch - cracking second half. Da iawn Cymru.

Must admit I thought it was all over at half-time. Fair play to the Welsh lads for fighting till the very end.

Just a reminder. International rugby league returns on Sunday Dec 4 with England Academy v AIS at Leigh Sports Village.

They play for the Academy if they are good enough I presume

No, I meant how is it that they're world beaters at 18 but a light years behind just a few years later?

Australia beat the Welsh lads 36-0.

The England Academy get an Australia tour with two warm-up games and two Tests. Why not the senior England squad with the World Cup only a year away? I know the ARL said they were giving their players the year off, I'm sure something could have been arranged with the NZRL, PNG and the Pacific nations. We might have even been able to get games against Australia A.

Does anybody know the England academy's fixtures in Aus?
