A full-on battle is expected when international wheelchair rugby league arrives in Leeds on Sunday.
The showdown at First Direct Arena is the sport’s first Test match staged in the city and marks England’s return to action following their World Cup final win over this weekend’s opponents France 12 months ago. Leeds Rhinos star Tom Halliwell captained the side that evening, was named player of the match and scored the winning try. He will lead England again on Sunday and - with no love lost between the world’s two best sides - is preparing for another no holds barred encounter.
” Tickets are still on sale, but a crowd of more than 2,000 is guaranteed and Halliwell admitted captaining England in front of a gate of that size, at an arena venue in his home city, is something he never believed would happen. He said: “I am a proud Leeds lad and to be able to represent and captain my country in my home city is something very special.
