That’s all for tonight’s live coverage. Thanks for following along.
It was a momentous night for the Wallabies. Australian sides haven’t made a habit of overcoming adversity in the last 15 years. This team did exactly that tonight.
See you all back here for the first Bledisloe on Saturday, August 7. Until then, keep it tuned to SMH Sport for all the latest news and analysis.
This is some superb insight from the Wallabies’ bench.
The series win clearly meant plenty to all involved.
Tom Decent has managed to cobble a match report together after 80 minutes of pure chaos.
If you want a full recap of all the action tonight, look no further.
Any queries about Michael Hooper’s role as both captain and the incumbent No. 7 have been put to bed in the last fortnight.
He led from the front in each of the three Tests. If there was a player of the series awarded, it would have been a Hooper.
His work rate seemingly improves every year, which is astounding.
Darcy Swain was enormous for the Wallabies in his first start tonight.
After churning through the tough stuff for 80 minutes he was the forward who stood up, tore through the middle of the maul and legally brought it to ground in what was the match winning play.
The 24-year-old will be part of this Wallabies squad for a long time.
What. A. Win.
Dave Rennie’s side played with 14 men for 75 minutes but they found a way to win. Incredible.
But France have won a penalty and have the ball 25 out from the Wallabies’ line.
There’s less than two minutes to play and Noah Lolesio has just put another penalty goal over the black dot.
The Wallabies lead 33-30 and have won the ball back from the restart.
They’re on the verge of an historic win against all odds.
