Mikey Lewis is transitioning from a career highlight after winning the Super League Grand Final and is now aiming for another significant achievement by potentially representing England at Wembley Stadium.
According to skysports.com, Lewis delivered an outstanding performance at Old Trafford, leading Hull KR to their inaugural Grand Final victory over Wigan Warriors. This triumph completed a remarkable treble, alongside wins in the Challenge Cup and League Leaders' Shield.
It was a pivotal moment for both Lewis and the sport. Head coach Willie Peters noted it as the "making" of Lewis, while England's coach, Shaun Wane, recognized that it influenced his selection choices.
Lewis aspires to play at Wembley this Saturday against Australia in the first of three Ashes Tests. However, this time, he won't be celebrating alongside Peters.
As Hull KR's head coach, Peters is now an assistant coach with the Kangaroos, providing insights to the Australian side about what to expect. Though Lewis is aware that Peters knows him better than most, he also feels confident due to Peters' belief in his abilities, which he hopes will allow him to perform at his best against Australia.
