Australia crush England 8-30 to seal series whitewash

Australia completed a dominant 3–0 rugby league Ashes series victory with a 8–30 win over England at Headingley, marking their first back-to-back clean sweeps since 1986.

Despite England showing more creativity and resilience, costly errors gifted the Kangaroos their first three tries, including early strikes from Josh Addo-Carr and Hudson Young.

England briefly rallied through a George Williams try and a Harry Smith penalty, but Australia’s class shone through as Harry Grant and Reece Walsh scored late to seal the rout.

The result reaffirmed Australia’s supremacy and left England ruing another series of missed opportunities and unforced mistakes.
