Just in case you see the name Lukhan Salakaia-Loto in a future Wallabies squad: it's not a new player.
Lukhan Tui has legally changed his name to Lukhan Salakaia-Loto to honour his late stepfather.yes! I can't wait to hear Tim Horan absolutely mangle that

Loo-can salah-ki-ya-low-toe
I'd put money on that.

I thought he was already given an ultimatum before the rc ?

"don't make us sack you. Because we won't. And we can't afford to. So you'll make us look hopeless. So just win okay, for us all"

Fox Sports have revealed that key Wallabies will be rested during Super Rugby to ensure they are fresh for the 2019 Rugby World Cup in Japan.

There's reports that there is a high profile former Wallaby on Jake White's coaching team - if I had to guess I would say it would be Glen Ella.

RA chief executive Raelene Castle and fellow board members will speak to World Cup-winning former Springboks and Brumbies coach White via a phone hook-up on Thursday to test the waters should they opt to sack Cheika, according to News Corp Australia. -

@hooroo I assumed they meant from outside the current coaching team

His damning assessment of the Wallabies was they didn't have the skills to play anything but direct.

Good test of Krusty’s integrity when he says he doesn’t need this job. His employer is openly canvassing to replace him. Just a touch humiliating.
Only someone with an established reputation like White or a rank outsider would take this role it’s the kind of hospital pass that can permenantly damage your career.
-
@kiwimurph pretty interesting they are considering sacking him, well openly considering it at least.
Guess they wanna sign someone first, then push him out the door.
-
Can't come as a surprise, but I still don't see what this will achieve, apart from further damaging their financial position. White won't come cheap and his game plan is remarkably restricted.
-
@antipodean on the flip side it is a game plan that can be embedded in a short period of time.
-
And is a game plan at least one RWC cycle out of date. I'd contend that they'd not get out of their pool playing that way.
Lukhan puts family first, changes last name
