It will be a milestone achievement for Rob Valetini and Samu Kerevi when the Wallabies take on Wales in Cardiff tomorrow, as they will be playing their 50th cap for Australia.

Valetini debuted for Australia in 2019 against Samoa in Sydney and has been growing his game since then.

His consistency paid off when he won the John Eales Medal back to back in 2023 and 2024.

Meanwhile, Kerevi started his journey with the Australian Rugby in 2016 when the Wallabies played England in Brisbane.

In tomorrow’s match against Wales, the Wallabies will their trust in their experienced players such as Kerevi and Valetini.

Wallabies captain Allan Alaalatoa says Valetini and Kerevi are so good on the ball, both dynamic ball carriers, and they give them that front-foot ball.

He says their physical presence is immense for them as a team, and who they are as men off the field is also so good for their culture and group.

The Wallabies will take on Wales at 4.10am tomorrow.
