ENGLAND winger Dom Young admits painful memories of his side’s dramatic World Cup semi-final defeat to Samoa two years ago are driving his side to exact some measure of revenge in the upcoming two-test series in Wigan and Leeds.
Young was part of the England team that came up short in a 27-26 defeat at Ashburton Grove that was decided when Stephen Crichton’s golden-point drop goal sent the South Sea Islanders into the final against Australia at the hosts’ expense.
The 23-year-old is one of nine players who started that semi-final to feature in Shaun Wane’s 24-man squad for the two return fixtures, the first of which kicks off at the home of the Super League champions on Sunday.
