Wallabies sweep Japan after sizzling second half in Townsville

Show Notes

Start engraving the William Webb Ellis Cup - Bill's coming back to Australia in 2027.

We know this to be true without a lick of sarcasm following a roughly 40-minute passage of pristine rugby from the Wallabies in Townsville that ensured a 56-17 win over Japan.

Sensationalism aside, there's a lot to like about that Game Two performance - Massimo De Lutiis scoring a try as Wallaby #1000 among them - but what's most exciting is the rise of a genuine centre option in Isaac Henry.

There's also some big news in the Wallaroos world with a new coach (who won't start until 2027) and a new squad for the 100th Test coming up this weekend - plus an update on our Kiwi compatriots on tour in South Africa.
