Wallabies prop Taniela Tupou has revealed how the tears he shed while singing the national anthem before the third and final Test came after realising it could be his last time representing Australia. After a challenging season with the Waratahs that led Tupou to question his place on the rugby field the prop marked his recall to the Wallabies starting lineup with an outstanding display in Sydney. “I was quite emotional when I sang the anthem, and as you get older, these opportunities mean a lot more to you,” Tupou said. “You tend to think when you get older, oh man, one of these games could be your last, so I was just soaking it in, soaking in the environment, the crowd and everything. It was pretty cool to be part of it and I’m so delighted we won the game.”
