England believe they can limit the threat of Roger Tuivasa-Sheck tomorrow - but only if they work together.
The Kiwis fullback is, along with Shaun Johnson, arguably the most dangerous attacking player in the sport. He's got a huge sidestep off both feet, which he uses at almost full pace and he is extremely difficult to defend against.
The 22-year-old is also quick off the mark, with lightning acceleration over the first 10 metres. Tuivasa-Sheck also has great anticipation and alongside Billy Slater is probably the hardest working fullback in the game, constantly shadowing his forwards in the hope of an offload.
And Tuivasa-Sheck took his game to new levels in the 2015 NRL season, averaging more than 200 metres per game as he smashed the 5,000m barrier and even pushed close to 6,000m.
Tuivasa-Sheck has tormented England in the past, grabbing two tries in his only previous appearance against them in the World Cup semi-final in 2013.
"He's a really good player," said England coach Steve McNamara. "You have to work together. If you try to stop Roger on your own he will embarrass you. If you work together collectively you have a far better chance of preventing him doing the special things that he can do."
In his assistant's role at the Roosters, McNamara has had a close view on Tuivasa-Sheck's ability; perhaps both a blessing (insider knowledge) and a curse (sleepless nights over how to stop him).
Kiwis prop Sam Moa felt McNamara's time at Bondi would be an advantage.
"There is a large Roosters contingent on our side...no doubt Steve will be dishing out the dirt on us," said Moa. "He will be trying to give his team our weaknesses, barring Roger who I don't think has any weaknesses. He'll be dishing out a lot on me."
McNamara conceded it could be an advantage - but only if the theory was put into practice.
"It's good information, it's good knowledge to have but you have to go out and apply it," said McNamara. "It's easy sitting in a video room assessing players and thinking about what you may be able to do but you have to get the players physically and mentally ready to do that."
The test kicks off at 5pm on Sunday (6am Monday NZT).
