Carlo Tizzano made his debut against the Springboks in a brutal defeat in Brisbane. Now he wants to do it all again in Perth.
to the world champion Springboks – Wallabies breakaway Carlo Tizzano is desperate to do it all again in front of his friends and family in Perth this week.
“You could really feel the power in their scrum and in their mauls as well,” Tizzano said. “But at the same time, I feel like in moments, we also did a good job at containing that . “I really love that I got just thrown straight in the deep end against the best in the world,” Tizzano said. “I think that’s an awesome way to test how all the hard work you’ve been putting in over all these years since you’re a kid to see where you can put yourself.“It was bittersweet. I was absolutely gutted because winning is everything, so to lose in front of that massive home crowd was a tough one ... all the players in sheds, we were pretty upset about that.
Slipper has faced various Springbok front rows in his 14-year international career, but cannot think of many better than the current one. “We don’t want to see kicks uncontested, we want to see them hit grass – and it’s not just the kicking, it was the set piece as well, it was the way we were tackling,” Slipper said.
