Adam Ashley-Cooper is more than happy to be on the wing against the All Blacks tomorrow.
Cooper believes Wallabies centres Rob Horne and Anthony Faingaa will have their hands full with the Sonny Bill Williams-Ma’a Nonu combination.
Williams and Nonu, who both weigh in at more than 100kilograms, will line up at inside and outside centre respectively for New Zealand in tomorrow’s first Rugby Championship game.
It will be only the third time that Williams and Nonu have started a Test as a centre pairing partners and just the second occasion after last year’s World Cup clash with Tonga.
Ashley Cooper believes Australia has worked hard on their tactical kicking being exposed by New Zealand in those areas in last year’s World Cup semi-final.
The Wallabies will host the All Blacks at 10:05pm while the Springboks will play Argentina at 3am Sunday.
