Re: Wallabies 2024 (2023 never happened)

Will Harrison has played about 36 minutes of rugby in the past two years, and he is now our future saviour? We’ve lots of promising youngsters. Until then, it’s probably Lolesio to man the holds. OK. So we’ve got Lolesio in the squad, then Anyone else? Two of Quade, Foley, Harrison, Donaldon and CG.

Re: Wallabies 2024 (2023 never happened)

I thought both Salami and Foketti were good tonight, which is a relief considering we are weak at 12 without Kerevi.b Kerevi not expected to be in Wallabies this year? Mind you he was poor last year so maybe he's past his best. He’s just turned 30, which is 22 in Fijian years. Last year he was just...
