2022 will not go down in history as one of the best in Australian Rugby history.
Dave Rennie’s men have become somewhat of a yoyo, up one week, down the next.
Despite the lows such as the devastating loss to the All Blacks when the game was in the bag with less than a minute to play. There has been a number of highs which should give Australian fans hope heading into next year’s World Cup.
Nothing is more positive than the unearthing of winger Mark Nawaqanitawase who appears to be on a fast track to superstardom.
Starting this season Nawaqanitawase wasn’t even certain of making the Waratahs squad but has ended the year as a nailed-on starter in the Wallabies back three.
Once again highlighting just how valuable he has become to Wallabies game plan, Nawaqanitawase devasted the Welsh defence for two brilliantly taken tries.
In a similar style last weekend, it was Nawaqanitawase who was Australia’s danger man against a notoriously stingy Irish defence.
Plenty of options of who the powerful winger resembles have been thrown about but one name has really stuck with many fans likening him to former Wallabies powerhouse Lote Tuqiri .
Who does he most remind you of? Let us know in the comments below or on Facebook.
