England 'undersold' ourselves today - Wane
It is never a good sign when a head coach describes an international fixture involving his team as "torture".
Shaun Wane was clearly hurting after watching his England side suffer a comprehensive 26-6 defeat by Australia at Wembley in the first Ashes match for 22 years.
In truth, it could have been a lot worse. Australia started slowly and led by only eight points at half-time but eased clear in the second half while England wasted chances and made simple mistakes.
Australia will retain the Ashes if they beat England at Hill Dickinson Stadium in Liverpool next weekend - and they are not out of second gear yet.
