Tahs, ACT must succeed - for Australia's sake

The Australian Rugby Union's David Nucifora believes the Waratahs and the Brumbies must make the Super 14 semi-finals, Josh Rakic writes in the Sydney Morning Herald.

"It's really important that we get an Australian team in the Super 14 finals - it's hugely important.''

"These are the words of Wallabies high-performance director David Nucifora, who says that failure by the star-studded Waratahs and Brumbies sides to at least qualify for the semi-finals could prove catastrophic for the rebuilding of Australian rugby.

''Last year was disappointing for Australian rugby and it's really important that one of our teams at least makes the semi-finals,'' he said. ''We've got teams that have the capabilities to win the competition, I have no doubt about that, so from an Australian Rugby perspective we need them to make good on that potential."
