Timani 'surprised' by Wallabies interest AAP 2 hrs ago Justin Chadwick © AP PHOTO Sitaleki Timani, a veteran of 18 Tests, is back in the reckoning for a place in the Wallabies team. Western Force lock Sitaleki Timani says it was a big surprise to be brought back into the Wallabies frame, and he's aiming to make the most of it. Timani played the last of his 18 Tests in 2013 , with the 34-year-old leaving Super Rugby that year in order to play in France.

Melbourne Rebels set to play first home game in over a year March 13, 2021 GMT MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — The Melbourne Rebels are set to play their first Super Rugby home match in more than a year. The Rebels spent all of last season on the road due to COVID-19 restrictions, and were forced to leave Victoria state a month ago during the start of this season to escape a new virus outbreak. They finished a month-long road trip Friday with a 10-7 win over the Western Force and now play the first of four home games on March 19 when they take on New South Wales.

The Melbourne Rebels have overcome a red card and a rare blackout to post a thrilling three-point win over the Western Force in Perth.
