Double celebration for Haven
Last updated 11:00, Friday, 08 August 2008
And the news follows Haven's resounding 52-8 home victory over Sheffield Eagles Thursday night.
The 17-year-old scrum half sensation will start for Great Britain undxer-18s in the Second and final Test against the Junior Kangaroos in Brisbane.
With the British boys hammered 66-8 in last weekend's First Test it is no surprise that the Whitehaven boy has been called up to start in the No.7 shirft.
His dad Tony told me this morning: "Gregg has texed to tell us and he is very bubbly about it. As a family we are all absolutely delighted, my wifve Janice has been in tears, we are very, very proud of him."
Tomorrow's Test (Saturday) is the last match of the tour and Gregg will be back at his Kells home next week.
