Itoje's Lions Dreaming of Peak Performance in Third Wallabies Test
NEW SOUTH WALES, AUSTRALIA, JUL 29 – Allan Alaalatoa's shoulder injury sustained in the second Test rules him out of the final match, forcing the Wallabies to adjust their front row lineup for the Lions series finale.
- Wallabies prop Allan Alaalatoa, the Wallabies’ tighthead, was ruled out of the third Test in Sydney’s Accor Stadium due to a shoulder injury, confirmed Tuesday morning.
- During the second Test at the MCG, he suffered a shoulder injury and was removed at half time, with the Wallabies confirming he will not play further in the series.
- Replacement prop Tom Robertson will step into Alaalatoa’s role at tighthead for the Sydney Test, as Nick Frost said there’s 'fire in the belly' with the series at 2-0.
- Aidan Ross has been called into the Wallabies squad, providing an opportunity in Alaalatoa’s absence and potentially debuting in the third Test.
- Chasing history, the British & Irish Lions aim for a rare 3-0 clean sweep in Sydney, a feat not achieved since 1904.
