The Wallabies wont be compromising their style or approach to break a decades-long hoodoo in Pretoria - Michael Cheika wants them to do it the Australian way.One of the biggest challenges of Cheikas coaching coaching career awaits at Loftus Versfeld in Saturdays Rugby Championship Test against a backs-to-the-wall South Africa (Sunday morning AEST).In six attempts stretching back to 1963, the Wallabies have never won at the intimidating, 51,762-seat cauldron in South Africas Highveld region.Its the perfect setting for the Springboks to respond after three losses on the bounce, a selection shake-up from coach Alister Coetzee and lingering questions over whether theyve lost their aura.But Cheika says they wont look to play conservative rugby or change their course just to get the job done. We dont just want to go and try to win in Pretoria, he said.Maybe we think too much about whats going to happen at altitude or whats going to be the kicking game from them, instead of just saying, lets play our game, go here and play to the best of our ability and see what happens.We want to go there and play like Australian teams should play rugby and thats something that weve been working really hard on.We dont think weve fulfilled that as much as we wanted to this season.Clarity has been the buzzword around Wallabies training in Johannesburg this week - fitting, because it will take a clear, focused mind to beat a Springboks side that seems to grow an extra leg on home turf.To that end, Cheika has gone with a largely settled line-up, making only one change to his starting team, with Sean McMahon replacing the injured David Pocock (broken hand) at No.8.The bench, however, is packed with players with the potential to make a decisive late impact, from lock Kane Douglas - who fought his way back into the side after he was dropped for the win over Argentina two weeks ago - to pace machine Sefa Naivalu, who only became eligible to represent Australia on Monday.The Fijian-born winger is locked in to make his first Test appearance and will become Wallaby No.900 - and the teams 10th debutant this year - with Lopeti Timani trimmed on Friday from an extended nine-man bench.Cheika believes the Wallabies have ticked every box in preparation.Weve trained pretty hard because we understand theres going to be a lot of action in the game; theres going to be a lot of running, a lot of chasing, he said.If you even want to have the hope of being successful down here, youve got to be prepared to put everything on the line physically.AUSTRALIA vs SOUTH AFRICA - AT A GLANCE:When: Saturday, October 1, 5.05pm local (1.05am Sunday AEST)Where: Loftus Versfeld, PretoriaReferee: Wayne Barnes (England)Assistants: John Lacey (Ireland), George Clancy (Ireland)TMO: Jim Yuille (Scotland)Australia: Israel Folau, Dane Haylett-Petty, Samu Kerevi, Bernard Foley, Reece Hodge, Quade Cooper, Will Genia, Michael Hooper, Sean McMahon, Dean Mumm, Adam Coleman, Rob Simmons, Sekope Kepu, Stephen Moore (c), Scott Sio.

By having more great seasons. Manning was the only unanimous choice for the 2013 Associated Press NFL All-Pro team Friday. Miles Sanders Womens Jersey .B. -- The Baie-Comeau Drakkar took over sole possession of first place atop the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League on Thursday with their sixth straight win. http://www.theeaglesshoponline.com/Youth-desean-jackson-eagles-jersey/ .500 on the season. The Jets are now 0-5-1 in the second game of back-to-backs. The game started the same way the Vancouver game started the night before, with the Jets taking the first two penalties of the game and killing off the first, but the Oilers getting on the board first, scoring on the second man-advantage. Dallas Goedert Jersey . -- Anaheim Ducks captain and leading scorer Ryan Getzlaf has been scratched from Sunday nights game against the Vancouver Canucks because of an upper-body injury. Shareef Miller Youth Jersey . -- Nate Robinson has played for seven teams, so beating one of them is no longer a rare occurrence. Englands batsmen displayed impressive defensive skill on day four in Visakhapatnam to lift their hopes of a draw. But they still have to play out an entire day on a pitch that is no longer as trustworthy as it was before. There is substantial rough outside the left-handers off stump for Ravindra Jadeja to exploit from the Press Box End and R Ashwin has benefited from variable bounce at the Pavilion End.More importantly, India were able to break through a remarkably stubborn opening stand when Haseeb Hameed was lbw to a grubber. They also dismissed Alastair Cook in the last over of the day and with a minimum of 90.4 more left in the game and 317 runs in the bank, they are confident of going 1-0 up in the series.We are happy with the way things went, Cheteshwar Pujara said at the end of day four. We got two wickets. We knew that it wont be easy to get them out but we had our plans and we knew what we wanted to do. Ultimately we achieved what we wanted.Things wouldnt come easy for us also. We know that they are capable of batting well, so we wouldt take things for granted. Tomorrow we will definitely have to come hard at them. But we are prepared for it.When it comes to Test cricket, our bowlers and as a team we are prepared to be in a situation where we have to work hard for our wickets but when we see a victory, wwe know that we can get eight more wickets.dddddddddddd I dont know in how many overs but we have got a very good chance tomorrow, we will come hard tomorrow.After stumps on the fourth day, Virat Kohli rounded up his men in a huddle and was seen speaking animatedly to them. It seemed like he was getting them ready for a fight. Not the worst thinking considering that while there was help available to the bowlers, it didnt necessarily equate to a torrent of wickets. India had to put in 59.2 overs of hard work to pick up two of them.The main reason for that was how well Cook and Hameed batted. They added 75 runs in 50.2 overs, the third-longest opening partnership in the fourth innings of a Test in this country. India have broken through one blockathon before, against South Africa in Delhi last year. Can they do a repeat?Pujara believes so. I believe this wicket is such that if you play defensive, it is slightly difficult to get a batsman out but still as we saw today, there is low bounce. One or two balls from Ashwin bounced, from the rough. Jadeja was able to get a lot of bounce. Even if you play defensive also it is not easy, I dont think it will be an easy task to bat on this wicket. ' ' '
