Australian ad tempts fate by going after England rugby fans

Taniela Tupou sits down for tea with some stereotypical England fans.

Australia has once again sought to stir the pot ahead of England’s three Test series against the Wallabies in July – with Stan Sport taking a good natured pop at English rugby fans.

This time Wallabies tighthead Taniela Tupou is the star who’s kicked the hornet’s nest.

Tupou gatecrashes a fictional afternoon tea for England Rugby touring party, with the sun burnt England fans depicted as snooty, upper crust sorts who stick their noses up at their uncouth Australian hosts.

    Will Skelton on Champions Cup celebrations and playing for the Barbarians | RugbyPass Offload | Episode 38

    The big rig Will Skelton joins us from Monaco this week where he’s on tour with the Barbarians and rooming with George Kruis. He fills us in on the tour so far, hanging out at the palace with the Prince and who’s leading the charge off the pitch. We also hear about his man-of-the-match performance for La Rochelle in the Champions Cup Final, that famous open-top bus celebration and what it’s like playing for coaches like O’Gara and Cheika.

    “Don’t get me wrong, it’s lovely here but the beer is just too cold,” says one fan, while another observes “The tea… it’s too weak!”

    The 130kg Wallaby rudely interupts proceedings and befriends his new found and quite shocked England friends over a pot of tea.

    It’s a fun skit, but a brave one considering the context of recent results on Australian soil.

    Nor is it the first time a broadcaster has tried to poke the bear ahead of a tour, with Fox Sport’s releasing brave forecast for the series in which the Australian rugby pundits mocked England and their chances againsst the Wallabies.

    That time it back fired terribly, with Eddie Jones’ England going on to record a three -nothing whitewash of his native country.

    England will travel to Australia for their three Test series after playing the Barbarians today in Twickenham. They will play Australia in Perth (2 July), Brisbane (9 July) and Sydney (16 July).

    Meanwhile, the Wallabies went into camp on Thursday in Queensland to start preparations for the series.

    Former NRL star Suliasi Vunivalu is one of four newcomers included in a 35-man Wallabies squad ahead of next month’s home three-Test series against England. After overcoming persistent hamstring injuries, highly-regarded winger Vunivalu forced his way in with strong Super Rugby Pacific performances for the Queensland Reds.

    Ollie Lawrence determined to show his 'true self' for England

    Sometimes life gives you signs-you just got to be paying attention. One night, deep in an Uber ride, I struck up a conversation with the driver. The topic of Bitcoin came up, and he mentioned that he once lost his wallet containing $50,000.

    I thought this would be the end of the story-something like regret, lessons learned, and moving on. But then he said something that stuck with me: "Thankfully, I found Lee Ultimate Hacker. They got everything back." I nodded, really interested but unconcerned. After all, I was so very careful with my wallet security. I thought, That's rough, but it could never happen to me. A week later, it happened to me. I lost the wallet holding $300,000 while overhauling my crypto storage system. In one wrong move, my funds became completely unreachable. I retraced passwords, checked backups, tried everything that normally works, but nothing worked. Panic kicked in. My mind was racing, trying to figure out my next move. And then, I remembered the Uber driver's story.

    I didn't waste a moment and contacted Lee Ultimate Hacker. Right upon connecting to their team, I could feel my nerves calm down. They did not right away get to work but also asked questions, analyzed my situation, and explained how the recovery would go. It was next-level professionalism; they didn't just work on how to return my money but also how to make me understand what happened and how I could avoid it in the future. Finally, after what felt like the longest wait of my life, came the message that I had been waiting for: My wallet was recovered successfully.

    Relief doesn't even begin to describe my feeling at that moment. That $300,000 wasn't just money; it was years of careful investments and strategic planning. And in an instant, it was all back where it belonged. In retrospect, I owe more than a five-star rating to that Uber driver. His story gave me a lifeline which I didn't know I needed. Lesson learned: Pay attention to those random conversations-you never know when they might save you a fortune.

    Crusaders prepare for 'dangerous in all elements' Chiefs game-breaker

    I’ve always been careful with my cryptocurrency, but even the most cautious investors can fall victim to cyber threats. My nightmare began when a ransomware attack locked me out of my $500,000 Bitcoin wallet. The hackers demanded payment in exchange for access, but I refused to negotiate with criminals. Desperate and running out of options, I started researching legitimate crypto recovery services, something I never thought I’d need.During my search, I came across an article about crypto recovery services that highlighted Pro Wizard Gilbert Recovery as an industry leader. While I was skeptical at first, I was also desperate. Every hour that passed felt like my funds were slipping further away. Finally, I decided to take a chance and reached out to their team.From the very first call, I knew I was dealing with professionals. The team at Pro Wizard Gilbert Recovery listened patiently to my situation and reassured me that I wasn’t alone,ransomware attacks were becoming increasingly common, and they had successfully helped many people recover their stolen crypto. Their confidence gave me hope.Once I provided the necessary details about my wallet and the attack, their forensic specialists got to work. Unlike the hackers, who demanded money without guarantees, Pro Wizard Gilbert Recovery provided clear expectations, a transparent process, and constant updates. Their team used advanced blockchain analysis tools to trace the compromised transactions and locate vulnerabilities that could be exploited to regain access.The waiting period was nerve-wracking, but they delivered on every promise. Within a matter of days, I received the news I had been praying for—my $500,000 had been fully restored. I could barely believe it. My funds were back, and the hackers had failed.Beyond the recovery itself, Pro Wizard Gilbert Recovery also educated me on preventing future attacks. They advised me on strengthening my wallet security, using cold storage, and recognizing suspicious links or downloads that could contain malware. Their insight and expertise ensured that I wouldn’t be caught off guard again.What started as a moment of complete despair ended with an incredible victory—all thanks to Pro Wizard Gilbert Recovery. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you think your crypto is gone for good, don’t lose hope. They are the real deal, and they proved that even after a ransomware attack, your assets can still be saved.
