# Rugby: Australia’s scrapping of the so-called ‘Giteau Law’ has opened the door for Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt to strengthen his squad for the Rugby Championship with overseas-based players. The law prohibited the use of overseas-based Wallabies who haven’t played 60 Tests. Rugby Australia’s Peter Horne says they will still select locally-based players if they are of equal calibre. The Wallabies start their campaign with two Tests against the Springboks in South Africa – in Johannesburg on the 16th and a week later in Cape Town.
