Australian skipper Stirling Mortlock is happy for his side to take the underdogs tag into their Tri-Nations clash with South Africa tomorrow night.

The Wallabies, who are expecting a tougher physical challenge from the Springboks after three Tests against Ireland and France, are rated a $2.25 chance of notching a win at Subiaco Oval.

TAB Sportsbet is offering just $1.60 for a Springboks win.

Subiaco has not been a happy hunting ground for the Australians against the Springboks. The Wallabies have registered just one win from four clashes in Perth against the world champions.
