Australia Sweep Ashes With 30-8 Win Over England in Leeds

The result intensifies scrutiny of England coach Shaun Wane ahead of next year's World Cup.

Overview

  • Reece Walsh crossed twice late to close out the third Test and complete the 3-0 series sweep.
  • First-half tries from Josh Addo-Carr and Hudson Young established a 12-0 lead for the visitors.
  • Hooker Harry Grant added a second-half try after England's early pressure faded.
  • England lost AJ Brimson to a shoulder issue, forcing Mikey Lewis into an unfamiliar fullback role.
  • Australia secured successive Ashes whitewashes for the first time since 1986 as sections of the 19,500 crowd called for Wane's removal.
