The heavy defeat to England at Twickenham has left coach Les Kiss still searching for a solution to his side’s ongoing conundrum at No 10 If you thought that Albus Dumbledore had trouble filling the Defence Against the Dark Arts post at Hogwarts, spare a thought for Les Kiss who is the latest Wallabies coach desperate for a solution at fly-half. If only Harry Potter, part of the wider touring group, played at first receiver and not on the wing. Since the 2023 World Cup, a tournament that ende...
Australia continue to struggle to find identity and a top-class fly-half a year before they host the World Cup On the shivering Twickenham concourses shortly after full time, one well-oiled Australia supporter took it upon himself to congratulate his forlorn compatriots for at least turning up.

Maro Itoje must make sure his side’s emotions do not boil over and the breakdown battle will be pivotal England are riled up, they feel backed into a corner and if history shows us anything, it is that they tend to perform when their backs are against the wall.
