After a long season of Super Rugby for 2023 – and some upset and controversy of late for the Wallabies team – international teams are warming up for the Rugby World Cup. With South Africa achieving its third title in the 2019 World Cup and our neighbors in New Zealand recently taking the win for the Bledisloe Cup, it’s time Australia makes its comeback in 2023 to beat our friendly rivals across the ditch.
With the competition kicking off on September 9 in France and the semi-finals scheduled for late October, there’s plenty for rugby fans to get excited about over the next few months. Read on to find out where you can stream and watch the Wallabies take to the field for this year’s World Cup.
