ALREADY in a state of turmoil, Australian rugby faces a credibility test when dominant conference leaders the Brumbies host Super Rugby heavyweights the Highlanders on Saturday.
THE Brumbies defeated the Waratahs for the ninth straight time in a turgid spectacle with over 30 handling errors at Allianz Stadium.
THE Waratahs look like a heavyweight boxer without power in either hand. There’s big names in the team, but no punch in their attack, writes Jamie Pandaram.
ISRAEL Folau has declared the enormous weight of expectation on his shoulders will not stifle his brilliance in the three-Test series against France.
THE Waratahs finally won a game in New Zealand, and it could not have been more monumental, against defending champions the Chiefs.
WARATAHS ace Bernard Foley has presented an emphatic case to wear the Wallabies No. 10 jersey next week after matching rival Aaron Cruden hit for hit.
MICHAEL Cheika is demanding an effort unlike any other the Waratahs have put out in 2014, declaring they must “turn up the dial” against the Chiefs.
BERNARD Foley faces the ultimate test of his Wallabies No.10 credentials this weekend when he lines up against Chiefs star Aaron Cruden.
THE Australian conference could take on a vastly different look yet again with three key games in round 16 set to affect the standings. R16 preview.
ALL Blacks star Aaron Cruden’s return to the No. 10 jersey is one of six changes made by the Chiefs for their “season-defining” match against NSW.
THERE’S at least one reason why former All Black Brad Mika believes his cousin Will Skelton can handle a step up to Test footy – it’s in the genes.
