Alex Donohue of Ladbrokes said: “Ashton has taken us to the cleaners this tournament and we’re the only people not cheering every swallow-dive. Punters can’t get enough of him and his tries so we’re sure the special will prove to be popular.”
he added: “In what appears to the the championship decider the betting indicates that it will be a tight game but we expect England will make use of home advantage.”
