England get the win as three Hull FC players feature for the Combined Nations All-Stars

In a flat contest, it was England who had enough about them in the first half to post two tries through impressive debutant Jake Wardle and then from under-fire half back George Williams.

Whilst intensity was lacking for the most part, Shaun Wane’s side were good value for their lead, and they continued to pull away in the second half with John Bateman adding a third try. Ken Sio got a consolation effort for the All-Stars, but in truth, and with three Hull FC players amongst them, they never looked like troubling the England team.

Here Hull Live looks at how Hull’s Combined Nations trio got on.

Ligi Sao

Hull FC fans know all about Sao’s energy and drive and despite a pretty uninspiring contest at Warrington’s Halliwell Jones Stadium, it was no different on his representative outing.

The prop has so much size and strength about him and he made those attributes count with some good carries with solid go-forward and neat footwork.

If we’re nit-picking, and with discipline being such a key word at Hull throughout the season, he did give away one first half penalty for jumping the line too early which gave England the field position to strike, and there was a coming together with Michael McIllorum late on as well which was also penalised.

In truth though, you can put some onus on fatigue there. Sao got through a mountain of work and he was easily one of the Combined Nations' best players as he continues his stellar third year in this part of the world.

Chris Satae

The big Tongan prop, who also qualifies for Fiji, came on the field midway through the first half. He made his presence felt with a couple of carries and an offload.
