England Academy v Australian Schools 2nd Test

England Academy head coach Dave Elliott has made two changes to his 17-man squad to face the Australian Schoolboys at Emerald Headingley Stadium on Friday, December 14th (KO 7.30pm). Tom Nisbet of St Helens comes in on the wing, and Leeds forward Owen Trout is promoted to the starting 13 in place of the injured James McDonnell, with his Rhinos team-mate Loui McConnell included on the bench. That takes the Leeds representation in the 17-man squad to seven. Hull FC's Cameron Scott will once again captain the side as they aim to secure a second win and a series victory over the Schoolboys. Harry Newman of Leeds Rhinos and Wigan Warriors' Harry Smith, who both scored crucial tries in the first Test are also included. Looking ahead to the game, Academy Head Coach Dave Elliott said: "There's been buoyant mood in camp this week. We're excited and feeling prepared. "On Saturday, our effort and commitment throughout the whole game was outstanding. The energy and commitment in defence got us through in the end and we'll need to be on our game again on Friday. "All the players and staff are really excited about potentially winning the test series 2-0. It doesn't come around too often at any age group. "We'll all be putting everything in to getting that 'whitewash'."
