Leeds Rhinos' Harry Newman given 'I won't entertain that' warning by England boss Shaun Wane

But Wane reckons that could change before he selects his 24-man group to take on Tonga later this autumn, if Newman works on his temperament.

The England boss was at Headingley last Saturday when Newman - who is in England’s provisional 40-man squad - had a touchdown disallowed by the video referee early in Rhinos’ 50-0 defeat by Wigan Warriors.

The RFL’s match review panel accused the Leeds centre of “acting in an irritated manner”, though no action was taken against him.

“If it was now, probably not, but things can change over the next few weeks,” Wane said of whether Newman would be in his squad to face Tonga.

“He is a real talent and a good kid. I know he's not a bad kid off the field, it's just something he needs to get out of his game. He needs to improve and get better at that; I will not entertain that.”
