'Wallace, on the position of Australian Rugby in the light of recent contests against the Springboks and the criticisms made by the Springboks’ captain, Phil Nel, cabled from New Zealand. Fingleton remarks, “It is no secret that Wallace found the standard of Australian players exceedingly low. Ho had to start from the beginning in coaching several players. Nel’s comment on the Australians scorns amply justified.”
