Australia’s captain, Harry Wilson, dismissed accusations his team are guilty of illegal breakdown tactics on the eve of England’s meeting with the Wallabies at Twickenham on Saturday and suggested it was English “whingeing”.
The England head coach, Steve Borthwick, reportedly raised the issue of Australian players frequently joining rucks from the side with the referee, Nika Amashukeli, in a pre-match meeting, according to the Daily Telegraph.
