SEATON star Richard George has been called up into the BARLA Great Britain squad to take on the touring South African Rhinos.
He is one of just two Cumbrians to be included in the squad, alongside Millom’s Craig Wilson.
The duo impressed after good games in the county trial match recently between the Cumberland and Barrow district leagues.
The GB open age side will take on the Rhinos in the last match of their tour, at Hull KR on Friday, October 17.
A county side is also due to be announced later this week to play the Rhinos at Craven Park on October 8.
George has played for his country in the past but has suffered numerous injury setbacks over the past couple of seasons.
But he is back to form for his club now and the selectors have sat up and taken notice.
