MELBOURNE : Flyhalf Quade Cooper says the Wallabies can only get better after their Rugby Championship trouncing by South Africa and are still getting used to their combinations under Eddie Jones.
The 63-year-old has only a few days to turn things around, with the Wallabies to meet Michael Cheika's Argentina in Sydney on Saturday. "With every journey, it's never smooth sailing. Under Eddie's guidance, we will work towards that goal, which is to be World Cup champions," he told Australian media."As a team, we haven't had a lot of time together. It's continuing to build our combinations the way we want to play and build belief and clarity in that."
However, Australian media detected little progress under Jones' stewardship and declared the new coach already under pressure.
