Wallabies back consistency in Boks battle

Wallabies coach Dave Rennie insists his side has what it takes to back up last weekend's Rugby Championship win against South Africa with another victory on Saturday.If they do topple the Springboks again it would be the first time Rennie's men have secured back-to-back victories this year.He's opted for stability at the selection table with an identical run-on side to the one that beat the Springboks 25-17 last week, the first time in his 26-match reign he hasn't made a change to the starting 15.Much has been made of the Wallabies' poor record of inconsistency under Rennie – they've had one multiple-game winning streak in his tenure – but he insisted it wasn't about his side's lack of mental application."When you win people think it's relief, and really my thoughts five minutes after the game are how do we win next week?" he told reporters."All the preparation and thinking is going into what our weaknesses look like, how do we make sure that we create an edge after a win rather than being satisfied?"We know we're going to need to be better because we gave away a lot of penalties last week and the Springboks weren't able to hurt us."The only change to the 23-man squad sees scrumhalf Jake Gordon grab a spot on the bench in place of Tate McDermott.“I thought Tate (McDermott) was strong off the bench so it’s not based on form. We’ve got three excellent nines here, we’re trying to keep them all in the mix,” he added.“(Nic) Whitey has started every one and the other guys have tag-teamed it. Back in Sydney, Jake’s home town so we’re excited he’s going to be in the mix this week.”It's a crunch encounter for the Wallabies in their pursuit of a first Championship since 2015, but there could be a temptation to have one eye on next weekend's clash with a struggling New Zealand side that might be ripe for a Bledisloe Cup beating for the first time since 2002."Every Test is important, we want to get some momentum and so that's why it's good to have continuity at selection," Rennie said."We've got ourselves in a reasonable position on the table, along with Argentina, so it's a big weekend for all teams in the comp."We want to take confidence and momentum into that Bledisloe series, but our focus is totally on South Africa at the moment."South Africa coach Jacques Nienaber has taken the opposite approach, swinging the axe with eight changes to his injury-hit team.Notably, five-eighth Handre Pollard misses with a knee injury and will be replaced in the No.10 shirt by Damian Willemse, whose fullback role will be taken by veteran Willie le Roux.They've also debuted lightning-quick 19-year-old Canan Moodie who looks a threat on the wing.Click Here: cronulla-sutherland sharks shirt
