Head coach Dave Rennie is confident back-to-back Rugby Championship wins over world champions South Africa will give Australian fans a much-needed boost after three confidence-sapping defeats against New Zealand.
The Wallabies handed the Springboks a 30-17 loss in Brisbane on Saturday to follow up a last-gasp victory over the South Africans the previous weekend, although the result was not enough to keep Australia's title hopes alive.
The wins over the world champions come after Australia lost three successive games against the All Blacks to miss out for a 19th year in a row on claiming the Bledisloe Cup against their trans-Tasman rivals.
