Australian sport got dire, the Wallabies’ game included (5)
I believe the answer is:
trugo
'australian sport' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'got dire the wallabies' game included' is the wordplay.
'dire' is an anagram indicator.
'the wallabies' game' becomes 'ru' (rugby union. I am not sure about the 'wallabies'' bit.).
'included' is an insertion indicator.
'got' anagrammed gives 'tgo'.
'tgo' enclosing 'ru' is 'TRUGO'.
