Wallabies: Tui says he does not want ‘to play anymore’ after altercation with fan

Coach Michael Cheika claims incident sparked by Tui’s sister being pushed by supporter after Australia’s 23-19 loss to Argentina


A distraught Lukhan Tui has told teammates he is “not going to be playing anymore” following an ugly post-match altercation with a fan, according to Wallabies coach Michael Cheika.
Cheika claimed the incident was sparked by Tui’s sister being pushed by the supporter near the tunnel at Cbus Super Stadium on the Gold Coast, immediately following Australia’s shock 23-19 loss to Argentina on Saturday night.
