In a meeting with The Sydney Morning Herald, Alaalatoa claimed the Wallabies’ playing team were “shocked” when the information damaged a week ago that Dave Rennie had actually been sacked as head instructor.

“But what we have spoken about already is we can only control what we can control. If you want to be part of those discussions with Eddie you have to train well and perform well in your state union. So again, you will see a lift in the Super Rugby competition, and that’s awesome. That’s what you want.”
He included: “The stats don’t lie, he knows how to win and at the end of the day that’s what we want to do as players, and as a country.
“I haven’t been coached by Eddie but from a few of the past players I have got the gist of the way he coaches, and from the vibe I am getting what you do know with Eddie is you are going to get better. As a player, if you don’t want to get better, you’re in the wrong job.”
