ENGLAND head coach Wayne Bennett vowed to keep his side's 34-0 defeat against New Zealand in 'perspective' as they were denied a much-desired series whitewash yesterday.

The hosts were humbled by a ruthless Kiwi side who produced a world-class display on a poignant afternoon at Elland Road as the 100th Armistice Day was marked.

The series ended 2-1 and England still lifted the Baskerville Shield following narrow but impressive triumphs in Hull and Liverpool. This was the nation’s second heaviest defeat against New Zealand in their long history of meeting each other, the only bigger one being the 49-6 World Cup semi-final loss at Bolton in 2000.
