Wales are bracing for back-to-back battles against the Wallaroos, with the first clash set to unfold in Brisbane on Saturday and the rematch locked in for Sydney just a day before the British and Irish Lions close out their test series in the same city.
The Welsh camp is chasing redemption after being left licking their wounds in last year’s WXV2 showdown, where Australia ran riot in a 37-5 statement win en route to lifting the title. That defeat served as a sharp contrast to their historic first victory over the Wallaroos at Rodney Parade just weeks earlier—a rare bright spot in an otherwise lopsided rivalry.
With a dominant 7-1 all-time record in their corner, the Wallaroos have history on their side. But if Wales can rediscover the fire that lit up Newport last September, this two-match tour could be more than just damage control—it could be a turning of the tide.
