Wallabies legend John Eales: Aus 'Need to Think Outside the Box' to beat British & Irish Lions

Wallabies legend John Eales joins Martin Devlin on the DSPN for a candid rugby chat, following the first Australia-British & Irish Lions test, and ahead of the second tussle in Melbourne. John and Marty break down Australia’s first-test loss and what needs to change. John stresses the importance of mastering the basics - scrums, lineouts, and reducing costly mistakes - while highlighting confidence and mental resilience as key factors. He reckons the Aussies need to think more creatively and outside the box when attacking. John also praises coach Joe Schmidt’s leadership, but notes the Lions’ cohesion and intensity set a tough standard.
