Following Japan's fairytale win over Scotland which catapulted them to top of Pool A and into their first-ever Rugby World Cup quarter-final we wrap up the group stage and break down the Wallabies' concerning formline ahead of their quarter-final against England. On the AFL trades front, we dive into how two of the biggest rumoured deals - Brad Hill to St Kilda and Joe Daniher to Sydney - could be finalised. With the A-League now underway, that means it must be time to talk about VAR again, and to finish up, we break down which players in contention for Australian selection impressed during the opening round of Sheffield Shield matches. Matthew Petherick and Daniel Jeffrey are joined by Brett McKay, Josh Elliott, Matthew Galea and Scott Pryde.
