England's 39-13 rugby union victory over the Pacific Islanders has been hailed as a springboard to further success by Goole's Jamie Noon, whose family also live in Eggborough.
The Newcastle Falcons star said of the intensity of the game: "We knew it would be a physical match – there were some good hits flying around! But it was nice to have a win and settle a few nerves."
And he acknowledged the need to build on the win. "We now have a springboard. We lost our shape a bit at times after a great start. We scored several good tries but should have had a couple more though it was a strong performance overall."
Jamie has also been named in the team to play Australia in the Investec Challenge at Twickenham on Saturday.
