Herbie Farnworth is set to play a key part in England's first meeting with Australia since losing 6-0 in the 2017 World Cup final
Having made the journey from Blacko in Lancashire to the bright lights of Brisbane, England's Herbie Farnworth has emerged as an NRL star in Australia.
As arguably the best centre in the world, he is also the "cheat code" England hope can help deliver a first Ashes series victory over the Kangaroos since 1970.
Farnworth is one of six men in Shaun Wane's England squad who play in Australia's premier competition.
And his abilities cannot be underestimated, even as former Australia forward Aaron Woods and other pundits from outside the UK have provided fuel for Wane's squad with withering comments about their quality.
