The Wallabies have one final chance to get a win on their UK tour, and star playmaker James O’Connor knows exactly what they need to get right.
The Wallabies’ UK tour has gone from bad to worse, with injury claiming the biggest scalp of all in the lead-up to Australia’s Test against Wales.
After an encouraging year of Tests under coach Dave Rennie, four Wallabies have been nominated at the 2021 World Rugby Awards.
AN angry Michael Cheika has unloaded over queries relating to his future as Wallabies coach in the wake of another Bledisloe disaster as the All Blacks produced another Eden Park masterclass.
BEAUDEN Barrett made history with four tries as the All Blacks smashed the Wallabies in Auckland to retain the Bledisloe Cup yet again.
WHEN the Wallabies last defeated the All Blacks at Eden Park 32 years ago, they were not paid to play, wore no advertising, travelled in economy-class seats and the team’s support staff numbered just four.
FIFTY-FIVE years ago the Wallabies toured South Africa and stunned the rugby world. Mike Colman writes:
MICHAEL Cheika may be best-equipped to steer the Wallabies out of choppy waters and through to next year’s World Cup but he doesn’t want results to sink much further, says JIM TUCKER.
WALLABIES skipper Michael Hooper is confident his side can unlock their “amazing skill” in the face of the fierce All Blacks defence to end a 32-year hoodoo at Eden Park.
IF the Wallabies lose on Saturday night in New Zealand, and in a fortnight in Brisbane to South Africa, they’ll slip to seventh in the world rankings.
ALL Blacks claim Wallabies showed a lack of decorum by waltzing back to sheds after their loss last Saturday, snubbing the presentation of Sam Whitelock’s testimonial cap for playing his 100th Test.
THE All Blacks run their eye on Kalyn Ponga, Super Rugby contract setbacks, political shenanigans and a Frank exchange. Get all your rugby gossip right here.
AUSTRALIA has not held the Bledisloe Cup for 15 years, and won a World Cup since 1999 — and that suits All Blacks coach Steve Hansen just fine.
