England\u2019s effort was undone on the hour when Grant bustled over before Nathan Cleary\u2019s kick restored Australia\u2019s 10-point cushion. <\/p>\n
Walsh then rounded off his fine tour with two late tries to take his tally for the series to four.<\/p>\n
The comprehensive defeat put England boss Shaun Wane\u2019s position in doubt ahead of a tour Down Under next year.<\/p>\n
Some sections of the home crowd called for Wane\u2019s departure as Australia began to pull away in the second half.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only people who I want (backing me) are the players and the staff and they know I\u2019ve got that,\u201d said Wane.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo lose 3-0, I feel so gutted for the players, and we\u2019ll reflect hard on what we\u2019ve done, how we\u2019ve played, the squad we\u2019ve picked, how hard we\u2019ve trained. <\/p>\n
\u201cEverything will be analysed and reflected on from within. I was genuinely optimistic when we went into this series and it\u2019s been a real test for us.\u201d <\/p>\n

Australia boss Kevin Walters said more clashes are needed to help the encourage the competitive balance between the sides. <\/p>\n

\u201cFor 20-odd years the Ashes haven\u2019t been played, and now it needs to continue on a regular basis, to allow both teams to continue to get better,\u201d Walters said. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt used to be a part of history and it just helps both nations – a different style of game over here, and the crowd overhere, it\u2019s great Test football.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Australia concluded a dominant 3-0 Rugby League series victory over England as Reece Walsh ran in two tries…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":271683,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[11638,64,63,689,13383,157882,157884,1208,2057,763,157883,23622,141431,24575,5094,4451,18387,157881,3194,44,3583,677,13390,13391,130928,38711,3586],"class_list":["post-271682","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-australia","tag-ashes-series","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-australia-and-new-zealand","tag-city-of-leeds","tag-crowd-overhere","tag-double-ices","tag-england","tag-europe","tag-fox-league","tag-george-william","tag-grant","tag-harry-smith","tag-home-crowd","tag-isaah-yeo","tag-josh-addo-carr","tag-josh-hannay","tag-kangaroos-def","tag-kevin-walters","tag-news","tag-northern-europe","tag-oceania","tag-payne-haas","tag-reece-walsh","tag-rugby-league-ashes-live","tag-series-victory","tag-united-kingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/271682","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=271682"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/271682\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/271683"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=271682"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=271682"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=271682"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
