Wallabies join former boss Rennie in mutual admiration society
Australia players speak about facing their ex-coach and current All Blacks mentor, Dave Rennie, for the first time.
The Wallabies and their former coach Dave Rennie have formed a mutual admiration society ahead of their upcoming Bledisloe Cup Test. Rennie, who led the Wallabies for three seasons before being sacked in 2023, has praised his former players, particularly Wallabies captain Harry Wilson, who spoke highly of his coaching during an interview.
Rennie noted that Wilson enjoyed his Test debut under him in 2020 and expressed immense gratitude. He also mentioned that Wilson and the rest of the players are a good side, experienced and well-acquainted, due to playing numerous Tests together. Rennie's contract was terminated in 2023, with the team underperforming under his leadership, resulting in a 38% win record in 34 Tests.
Despite his poor record, Rennie expressed no regrets, as he worked with talented individuals and had no hard feelings towards his former team.
