Wallabies expecting physical encounter at Twickenham

Wednesday, November 26 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Australians James Slipper and Sam Carter look ahead to the Wallabies final Test of the year against England, in another Autumn International at Twickenham this Saturday (29th November).

    Script:

    New coach Michael Cheika hasn't exactly inspired a Wallabies resurgence.

    Consecutive losses to France and Ireland has seen the national side slip to their lowest ever world ranking.

    This weekend's match-up against England will give the Australians an opportunity to bounce back.

    Prop James Slipper is expecting a tough encounter at Twickenham.

    SOUNDBITE: James Slipper, Australia prop
    "Coming in against England who are a very physical team, I think we're going to match them physically if we're going to win."

    It's the final match of their international tour.

    Lock Sam Carter says they've been trying to step up their game each week.

    SOUNDBITE: Sam Carter, Australia lock
    "England pride themselves on their set piece and work around the ruck so we're going to have to go to another level this week."

    A loss will be devestating for the Aussies, but England are facing their own struggles.

    They only snapped a five game losing streak against Samoa last week.

    It'll be the final time they face eachother ahead of next year's World Cup.
