Prop misses training in St Etienne with hamstring issueAustralia focusing on defence in buildup to Pool C game
Australia prop Taniela Tupou missed training on Wednesday due to a hamstring issue in a potential blow for the resurgent Wallabies a few days out from their second World Cup match against Fiji.
Tupou was outstanding in Australia’s 35-15 Pool C win over a physical Georgia side last weekend and would be a big loss for Sunday’s match against the even more robust Pacific islanders.
