WHITEWASH!

Great Britain 3 New Zealand 0

A new coach, a new belief and if it was the last roar of the Lions what a way to go!

Tony Smith's first series in charge and Great Britain responded with a thumping three nil whitewash of New Zealand.

As England - the same squad of players will go into next year's World Cup Down Under with genuine hopes of glory after their first series success in 14 years!

Led again by the immense Jamie Peacock and energised by pocket rocket Rob Burrow Great Britain forged ahead with a narrow victory in the opening test at Huddersfield's Galpharm Stadium. A week later in Hull, inspired by the genius of Leon Pryce, Peacock's Pride of Lions demolished the Kiwis - scoring an unanswered 44 points in one of the best performances ever seen on home soil!

With the series won Smith made changes for the final test at Wigan's JJB Stadium but after a slow start his charges stormed back, scoring five tries to win 28-22.

Enjoy extended highlights of all three fantastic victories, as our league boys put the Great back into Great Britain!
