The Wallabies team that will face Argentina tomorrow is littered with players that have spent a very long time away from international rugby.

The trio of Christian Leali’ifano, James O’Connor and Luke Jones all return to the matchday 23, after a combined 4,966 days out of international rugby.

Sports writers Iain Peyton and Reg Roberts shared the stats on their Twitter page that  O’Connor returns after 2,140 days, Jones returns after 1,701 days and Leali’ifano returns after 1,125 days.

Meanwhile, James Slipper and Nic White returned last week against the Springboks after 1,020 days and 1,435.

This marks some remarkable comeback stories for these players, who have had different troubles to face. Of course, the most impressive return is Leali’ifano’s after he was diagnosed with leukemia in 2016.

This means Wallabies Coach Michael Cheika is trying all he can to turn the Wallabies’ fortunes around and maybe has not done it in a way that fills fans with confidence.

The Wallabies will take on Argentina at 9.45pm tomorrow while the All Blacks will face South Africa at 7.35pm tomorrow.
