How the Wallabies have proved themselves as Rugby World Cup 2023 contenders

The Wallabies had a fairly successful year in 2021, with some promising and enthralling performances establishing their status as a potential Rugby World Cup contender less than two years before the sport's culminating championship. However, with only 50% of their matches won this year, they aren't nearly at the level where rugby fans would consider them anything more than a dark horse for the Rugby World Cup.

The Wallabies, on the other hand, have proved this year that they're on their way back to their best, which is fantastic for rugby fans all over the world. Australia started their season with a three-match test series against France, which they won two out of three. The first two tests were settled by two points before the hosts won the third test in Brisbane by three.

While the Wallabies suffered three straight losses to the All Blacks, holding the Bledisloe Cup on the other side of the Tasman for another year, they rebounded spectacularly over the next five tests. Quade Cooper was instrumental in the Wallabies' comeback, as they won all five of their matches. Two memorable victories over defending Rugby World Cup champions South Africa, including a commanding 13-point triumph in Brisbane, were among them.

Last month, the Wallabies beat Japan in Oita for their fifth win in a row, and their final victory of the year. This was the first time the Wallabies had won five consecutive tests outside of a Rugby World Cup year since 2008. The Wallabies had already established themselves as a squad on the rise prior to their end-of-year tour to the United Kingdom, but Cooper, Samu Kerevi, and Sean McMahon were all ruled out for this leg of the Spring Tour.

Their absences cost them dearly, as they were defeated by Scotland at Murray field, the first of three losses on a winless tour that ended their season. However, as will be explored shortly, the Wallabies can still extract advantages from their losses as they move forward to 2022.

What did 2021 prove about the Wallabies?

The Wallabies had a significant task in 2021, as they competed against teams from both the southern and northern hemispheres for the first time under Dave Rennie. They are shown in these matches that they have the ability to be a Rugby World Cup contender in 2023.

The Wallabies proved to the world that they aren't far off the mark when it comes to beating the greatest sides in the north, despite losing all three of their tests in the UK. The Wallabies were leading Scotland until the 69th minute when a penalty goal by Finn Russell gave the home team the lead, and they went on to win 15-13.
