Harry Newman insists he has plenty of time to fulfil his England World Cup dream - and firing up Leeds will help achieve it.
The gifted young centre continues his comeback from another injury tonight when they head to champions St Helens. Newman, 22, was sidelined for much of last season following a horrific double leg fracture suffered in 2020. And then he was crocked for months after suffering a lengthy hamstring issue on his first appearance this term.
Newman returned in Leeds’ last game, a 30-16 loss at Huddersfield, but then had to sit twiddling his thumbs due to the international break. It was too soon into his comeback to be considered by England boss Shaun Wane for last Saturday’s win over the Combined Nations All Stars. There's only four months before the home World Cup kicks-off.
