The Wallabies sealed their second win of 2024 and here’s how they rated in Melbourne against Wales.
The Wallabies got the series win against Wales and captain for the day James Slipper lifted the James Bevan trophy. It wasn’t pretty at times, with both sides struggling in the wet conditions in Melbourne.
Joe Schmidt will have a lot to work ahead, but he has achieved his most important goal as the new Wallabies coach, getting his players used to winning again.The veteran was a reluctant skipper before the game, but he led well throughout his shift. He anchored the scrum and carried strongly in the loose. He also made life difficult for the Welsh rookie tighthead Archie Griffin once again in their scrum battles.A mixed bag for the Reds hooker.
A shorter stint for Williams this week, putting in a solid performance in his 58 minutes, making 10 tackles.While Loto helped to restore the Wallabies’ early issues in the lineout with a tall and commanding presence, unfortunately, Loto also partially cost his side with a yellow card for a high shot. It was a tough card, as the second row had tried to dip his giant frame, but it was the correct decision. Positively was the Wallabies’ top tackler on the night with 14.
