Cheika tells Aussies to toughen up

Michael Cheika has challenged Australia to "harden up" against England at Twickenham on Saturday to dispel any notion the Wallabies are a soft touch.

Australia’s frustrated head coach admitted Ireland targeted his side’s perceived lack of physical threat at the Aviva Stadium.

The former Leinster boss will not flinch from putting the Wallabies through the training wringer again this week, ahead of their final autumn Test.
