The Wallabies got their World Cup off to the perfect start with a comfortable 35-15 win in Paris. How did the players rate?
The Wallabies finally got their first win of 2023 against a plucky Georgia team on a hot Parisian evening. How did Australia rate?So often the Wallabies’ first option as a ball carrier, Bell carried well and frequently found soft Georgian shoulders. Crucially, he played a key role in creating a dominant Australian scrum that will have set the tournament on notice.
It is highly doubtful that he will feature in the next game against Fiji.He slowly grew into the game after a nervy start and looked infinitely more comfortable later in the second half. The inclusion of Donaldson will have helped him, taking away the stress of the kicking tee and allowing him to focus on what’s in front of him, which is exactly what he did, creating space for his outside backs to thrive in attack, particularly for Donaldson’s second try.
