Wallabies vs SpringBoks at Telstra Stadium

Breyton Paulse will be hoping to pass some experience on to his young team mates on Saturdays Test Match.
This Saturday the Wallabies will be hosting the Springboks at Telstra Stadium, Sydney. This game has had quiet a controversial build up. David Moffett has been calling to “Ban of the Boks” from the Tri Nations and the Super 14 due the the resting of 20 key players from the Springbok side. The Australian press has also been relentless in calling the Springbok team the “B” team. Both Jake White and Bobby Skinstad (Springboks Skipper) have been upbeat and told the press that the label of “B-team” has only motivated them more.

We will also be seeing the final home test of 2 rugby legends. George Gergan and Stephen Larkham will play their final test match in Australia and it is set to be an emotional affair. Larkham will be playing his 100th test for the Wallabies while it will be George Gregans 132nd test.
