HENRY Pollock primed his Hong Kong-based brother to set his alarm in time to watch his influential second-half cameo as England overcame Australia 25-7 at Allianz Stadium.

Oh brother, you'd better be up for it!

Pollock confirmed his status as one of the game's most exciting talents by conjuring the brilliant 59th minute try that placed England in control of the autumn opener, also registering his third Test try in two replacement appearances.

Sporting the peroxide blonde hair style that he says was inspired by Chelsea winger Garnacho, the 20-year-old back row grabbed the headlines as part of Steve Borthwick's bomb squad that turned the tide against the Wallabies.

And he backed himself to deliver at Twickenham by urging his brother Angus to tune in for his pivotal touch down.

"My brother's abroad in Hong Kong right now. I told him - 'second half, buddy, set your alarm for that,'" Pollock said.
