Wallabies halfback Nick Phipps has insisted the Australian rugby team are not a bunch of sexists following the fall‑out caused by Kurtley Beale's offensive text message to a female team official.

Last week a disciplinary tribunal found Beale guilty of sending an offensive picture message to Wallabies team business manager, who resigned as a result of the fall‑out from the incident, and fined him 45,000 thousand Australian dollars.

The Wallabies will face the Barbarians this Sunday at 3.30am while the All Blacks face USA at 9am.
