BURROW GOES CLOSE AT<br />

NATIONAL TV AWARDS<br />

A big thank you to everyone who<br />

voted and helped build awareness<br />

for Rob Burrow’s nomination at the<br />

National TV Awards on Tuesday.<br />

Unfortunately, Rob’s documentary<br />

‘Living with MND’ missed out at the<br />

live awards at the O2 in London to<br />

music superstar Lewis Capaldi.<br />

The documentary, which was produced<br />

by the team at BBC Breakfast,<br />

followed Rob and illustrates the love,<br />

support and challenges faced by him<br />

and his family following his MND<br />

diagnosis in 2019. You can still watch<br />

the documentary on the BBC iPlayer.<br />

HEADINGLEY TO HOST ENGLAND<br />

V TONGA THIRD TEST<br />

England will host Tonga in a three-<br />

Test series this Autumn – the first-ever<br />

international series between the two<br />

nations and the first time they have met<br />

since 2017’s memorable Rugby League<br />

World Cup Semi-final in Auckland.<br />

The matches will take place at St Helens’<br />

Totally Wicked Stadium on Sunday<br />

22 October, Huddersfield’s John<br />

Smith’s Stadium on Saturday 28<br />

October and Headingley Stadium<br />

on Saturday 4 November.<br />

Tonga last played England in this country<br />

in the 2006 Federation Shield Final – won<br />

32-14 by England – and the two did not<br />

meet again until November 2017 when<br />

the Polynesians, trailing 20-0 with only<br />

seven minutes remaining, came within<br />

a whisker of overturning the deficit<br />

and denying England a final place at<br />

the death, eventually losing 20-18.<br />

Two years later the Tongans would<br />

emphatically announce themselves as a force<br />

on the international stage, with outstanding<br />

victories over Australia and Great Britain.<br />

With the three-time Super League-winning<br />

coach Kristian Woolf at the helm and the<br />

outstanding NRL forward Jason Taumalolo<br />

likely to be in the squad, Tonga will present a<br />

significant challenge to Shaun Wane’s side.<br />
