The Wallabies are looking to score their first win of the 2018 Rugby Championship when they clash with South Africa in Brisbane. The match will start at 8:00pm (AEST) on Saturday, September 8 at Suncorp Stadium.
Despite New Zealand coach Steven Hansen labelling Australia as the favourites prior to their two matches, it was the same old story for the Wallabies.
The All Blacks ran away with two very convincing victories to not only deny Australia the Bledisloe Cup for yet another season, but also leave their Rugby Championship campaign in tatters.
South Africa aren’t faring much better, however, with the Springboks struggling to put a plucky Argentina side away at home, before going down to the Pumas in the return fixture two weeks ago.
Amazingly, these sides played out not one, but two draws in the 2017 Rugby Championship.
Date: Saturday, September 8
Kick-off: 8:00pm (AEST)
Venue: Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane
TV: Live, Fox League and Channel Ten
