England captain Sean O'Loughlin to miss Anfield Test against Kiwis

England captain Sean O’Loughlin will miss the second Test against New Zealand in Liverpool due to a calf injury and has been replaced by Adam Milner.

O’Loughlin was forced off early in the first Test at Hull last Saturday match.

Prop James Graham will captain the host nation in O’Loughlin’s absence.

England coach Wayne Bennett says that picking Graham was a simple decision because he has captained the country side before.

New Zealand coach Michael Maguire has stuck with the same 19‑man squad for the second clash with former New Zealand captain Adam Blair retuning to the Kiwis’ 19‑man squad for the second test match.

New Zealand Kiwi’s will face England in their Rugby League Test 4.30am on Monday the 5th of November.
