AUSSIE enforcer Tyson Frizell admits he feels greedy at the prospect of making history against England.
The all-action Newcastle Knights second-row is set to debut for Tonga in Sunday's first Test at St Helens.
But it comes 12 years to the day after making his international bow for Wales - and six years after helping Australia beat England in the 2017 World Cup final.
No one has ever played Test rugby league for three different countries.
And Frizell certainly did not envisage it when, days after his 20th birthday in 2011, he stepped out for Iestyn Harris's Wales minnows. He recalled: "At that age, it's not something you aspire to. It's maybe at the back of your head and one day you might dream of it. I never thought it would happen.
"But I do pinch myself now. Not many people get to represent one country but I get to represent all three of mine and my heritage.
