CURRY IS NOT KIDDING ABOUT PUMAS TOUR

BEN CURRY can still remember the moment he understood what it meant to be on a full England tour.

- BY PAUL EDDISON

Aged just 18, he and twin brother Tom were bold selections from Eddie Jones eight years ago when England travelled to Argentina deprived of a host of players on Lions duty.

The Sale flankers turned 19 on that tour, and now Ben (below) is set for his second visit to that country with England returning to South America this summer.

But where he was a fresh-faced teenager who grew up very quickly last time around, the responsibilities in 2025 will look very different for Curry, who is being rested for Saturday's home game with France XV before flying to Buenos Aires next week.
