Farewell The Wallabies of Today. See The Wallabies of Tomorrow (ARC)
August 9th 2007 21:00
The Australian Rugby Championship starts today...and what better way to kick off a competition that will launch future Wallabies (maybe) than with The Wallabies of today.
....and yes, if you're a Canberrian, you will get to see this Man...you lucky thing you....
The Wallabies are about to fly off to France...eek, this means the Rugby World Cup is only 29 days away...and this is your lance chance to see them up close and in action, before they go.
Alas, I'm not going to be in Canberra this weekend.
Many other Wallabies will be appearing at the ARC Round 1 matches all over the country plus, as stated previously, many current World Cup squad Wallabies will be playing in the first few ARC rounds, to get game time and match fitness.
Please refer to this post to get more information on the individual ARC teams.
***************************
So try to get to these matches sportsfans...and not just because this is the last time we will see Stephen Larkham on Australian soil in a Rugby capacity...but because the Australian Rugby Championship, though fraught with controversy, is a worthwhile competition and may provide the fuel to ongoing Wallabies fire.
...but...next year? That fire will not burn as bright. Not for me anyway...
Bye GorGeous. sigh...SpLendid....
