Slipper to step up after Wallabies howler

James Slipper thought he'd ended the Wallabies' World Cup (選挙などの)運動をする with a 選び出す/独身 errant pass, but with Scott Sio in 厳しい 疑問 for the 残り/休憩(する) of the tournament, the 支援する-up 支え(る) now ぼんやり現れるs as a 重要な man to help 勝利,勝つ it all.

Slipper was a crumpled mess in the 74th minute in the 4半期/4分の1-final nail-biter against Scotland when his pass meant for Drew Mitchell was 迎撃するd by Scottish centre 示す Bennett,who sprinted away to 得点する/非難する/20 under the 地位,任命するs.

The loosehead 支え(る) had slotted in at first receiver with the Wallabies 粘着するing to a five-point lead, with time running out and rain coming 負かす/撃墜する.
