Back in line to feature against England on Saturday‘He’s got a lot of talent and will get the opportunity’
Jason Robinson, the most successful cross-code rugby player of the modern era, is backing Australia’s newest league convert to make an instant impact if he is parachuted into Saturday’s Test against England. Joseph Sua’ali’i is in line to feature in a Wallaby jersey for the first time and could even start despite not having played a single game of professional union.
Australia are desperately hoping the 21-year-old Sua’ali’i will be the catalyst who transforms their recent fortunes, not just in their forthcoming November Tests but in next year’s three-Test series against the British & Irish Lions. If the former Sydney Roosters back does make his debut at Twickenham, Robinson is among those who believe he may surprise a few people.
