Edinburgh: Veteran hooker Stephen Moore has described the field the Wallabies were scheduled to train at on Tuesday as "probably one of the poorest surfaces I've ever seen".

Nor was a phone call from Michael Cheika to the Scottish Rugby Union enough to stop the Wallabies from being booted off their training field because of wet conditions before the most important session of the week .

Cheika and other Wallabies officials were privately seething they were only given 90 minutes notice they would not be able to train at Peffermill Playing Fields before an afternoon session on Tuesday.
