After two weeks of training in Queensland, captain Michael Hooper has been forced to deny the Wallabies have been “hiding away”
After two weeks of training at the revived Camp Wallaby in Queensland, and only flying to Perth late on Thursday, captain Michael Hooper has been forced to deny the Wallabies have been “hiding away”., Hooper explained while attending a sparsely attended promotion in Perth.“We enjoyed our time up there in Queensland. It is great training conditions, the grounds are good, the facilities are fantastic. We just want to grow our game and evolve.
“I think Australia play very similarly to New Zealand,” Jones said. “If you look at the way they attack, they play similar patterns to the way most NZ Super Rugby teams play.“But the Brumbies have added to that a more ‘hide the ball’ type game and high kicking game, which is un-Brumbies like. That’s taken root in Australian rugby because of their success. They’re the most successful Super Rugby franchise and that’s added to the Australian game.
