  "account": "Fans eagerly await the Wallabies' opening match of their spring tour against England as they kick off their Nations Championship encounter at Twickenham. Live blog coverage starts here in our late-night show from London. Reporter Simon Smale greets viewers with a bleary-eyed introduction to the spectacle unfolding at England's rugby hallowed ground. The spring tour commences with England's weakened performance in the Six Nations, winning only one game against the Welsh. Australia's Wallabies, too, are not in peak condition, having lost their last two matches to New Zealand. Still, the team had been unbeaten for six games prior to their defeat in the Bledisloe Cup. Will the Wallabies bounce back to the form that led Les Kis' squad to triumph over the Springboks in Perth? Or will England's 25-7 victory at Twickenham in 2022 be repeated? Only time will reveal the outcome as we bring you live updates from Twickers.",
