They’ve punched Darcy Swain in the face and pulled her hair, slapped Michael Hooper during trial celebrations and pinned Nic White’s head to the loop with an elbow to the throat, but England have claimed high moral ground as niggle-gate dominated leading up to Saturday’s decider test in Sydney. While White said he was surprised by the level of sloppiness in the series, he was ridiculed by Eddie Jones, England assistant coach Richard Cockeril, saying that Wallabi’s focus on England’s dark arts raised questions about rugby in Australia. Cockerill admits “Ellis [Genge] last week may have crossed the line” in his showdown with White in Brisbane, but added that the England coach didn’t want to “hold the players back either.” “I keep hearing about the distractions England are bringing. I don’t know how Australian rugby is, but I don’t see it as a hassle,” said Cockerill. “It’s been pretty tame so far. We will cont...

Among all the comments that came out of the Wallabies after their second Test loss in Brisbane last weekend – they missed crashes, too many self-plagued, misguided lineouts – there was one key underlying message. Key points: Australia lost the second Test in Brisbane due to their inability to close the game Improving their discipline will be crucial because of England captain Owen Farrell’s goal kicking prowess The return of Queensland striker Harry Wilson should give the Wallabies an extra dimension of attack Australia just didn’t have enough patience to last longer than a dodgy England side who, through Owen Farrell’s boot, only managed to stay ahead the entire game. As a result, when they returned in the first game of a draw in Perth, they couldn’t be in Brisbane — all because of their own faults they made in the face of relentless pressure from an England team desperate to break records. losing four times in a row. There’s not even a patter...

England were back on level terms in a three-Test series against Australia but the charge for the Wallabies was significantly greater than the 25-17 reverse in the second Test at a hectic Suncorp Stadium. The Wallabies’ rankings are thin ahead of a decider in Sydney next week. Australia lost Izzy Perese and Cadeyrn Neville to potentially serious knee injuries, while Jordan Perese, playing at full-back for the first time for the Wallabies, lasted only a few minutes before he was forced off and is likely to miss next week with a concussion. protocol. And substitute Scott Sio added to the carnage that followed moments after coming on with a shoulder injury. If that wasn’t bad enough – with the Wallabies missing Tom Banks to a broken arm in the win a week earlier – his replacement Andrew Kellaway revealed at half-time that he would be out for eight weeks with a hamstring injury sustained in training on Tuesday. . “I feel for those people,” said Samu Kerevi. “They work very ha...

The Wallabies find themselves in almost unfamiliar territory, with a chance to secure the newly minted Ella-Mobbs Trophy in the second Test against England in Brisbane this evening. As far as this mid-year three-Test series goes, only four of them go back to 2014. The 2015 and 2019 Rugby World Cup years meant no Tests were played in June in those years. We just went straight from Super Rugby to the shortened Rugby Championship. And of the four series, only the 2016 series against England where the Wallabies have not won the first Test. Against France in 2014, the Wallabies won in Brisbane and finished the draw in Melbourne, before completing a clean sweep of the draw in Sydney. And against France again last year, the Wallabies won again in Brisbane but dropped a second Test in Melbourne. A Noah Lolesio penalty scored the tie again in Brisbane. Fourth draw against Ireland in 2018, where again the Wallabies won the first Test in Brisbane, but then lost the draw following defeats in Mel...
