Over the past two weeks, we’ve asked you to pick the Wallabies team for whenever it is they next play, including the starters, the bench, and the captain. It’s time now to reveal that full side.
The NRL’s plans for the season to resume in a bubble amid the COVID-19 pandemic will be finalised soon, with players facing the prospect of regular tests.
Pat Cummins says “in a perfect world” leading Australia in Test cricket would not be the first taste of captaincy for the likes of he and Marnus Labuschagne.

Lilian Thuram is a French legend.
NRL island seems like a tantalising reality dangling before us, teasing us with intrigue.
The Melbourne Cup is rich in heritage and passion, whether it be the cries of the thoroughbred fanatic, the once-a-year punter or those making the most of the opportunity to put on their finest clothes and sip Chandon until sunrise.
Here’s my preview of all Saturday’s action.
Pat McAfee, you’re a natural!
Let’s face it, what’s the point of a Facetime interview if not for this?
And the best news- the launch has been brought forward to April 16 due to the coronavirus pandemic!
‘As a player… ultimately, you want what’s best for the game.’
Apparently Canberra hasn’t changed much through the coronavirus crisis!
Get her into the New Zealand slips cordon when we can go outside again!
