    I only have coverage of the match with 0% analysis so unsure what happened to Quade but Foley is in the 10 jumper.

    Wallabies 20-11 and playing pretty well.

    French player tackled him before he had the ball, that's a penalty try although the comms are not talking about it at all.

    I saw a little of the pre match and all they said was that he wasn't playing. I presume he's injured because they zoomed in on him sitting on the bench looking more of a tool than usual in his civvies.

    France holding on here but I reckon they get done over in the end. That Morohan looks alright.

    France are pretty dangerous on the breakout, some nice offloading. That was probably a knock on and well against the run of play - Aus just need to keep their heads and they'll run away with it.

    Outrageous finish from Kuridrani. 25-16.

    Great try from Fofana. The French aren't defeated yet.

    Yup they've upped their game and look dangerous with ball in hand. 25-23 with 13 to go, great finish on the cards.

    Close game, much closer than I expected. I thought the Aussies would win this easily, despite some players missing. Not a bad game from the French. They should have been more patient at the end ...

    Droppie misses and the Wallabies hang on to stay unbeaten on their EOYT. Good win given how many players they rested.

    Geez, Hometown put his whistle away and bottled it in that last couple of minutes. The last scrum OZ on skates went to ground and collapsed, he calls a reset. Very poor call.

    Then the ensuing breakdown and Pocock on the ground still with hands on ball.

    Defensively OZ were good. France a little better in the 2nd 40, but for large portions of the test looked very disjointed in attack.

    That droppy was a low percentage option.

    Agree @ACT-Crusader. Would have thought both those were penalties.

    Think it happened last week against Scotland too - ref didn't want to call a winning kick for a couple of rucks I thought were suspect by us.

    Anyhow, stiff shit.

    Win's a win.

    Haven't seen the game BTW - first family camping trip in ages and I wasn't going to let that go. Supposed to be a "storm" which was barely an extended shower 😞

    So... Ireland next week. Expect most of our "first" XV to return, but I'm starting to wonder how many miles Foley has left in the legs.

    Cooper, who has been battling an ankle injury since Tuesday, faced a final fitness test on the morning of the game but couldn’t overcome the niggle.

    Aussies are really going to be out on their feet for the last test. Holy smokes, what were they thinking. England at the end of a very long year at Twickers. Seems good for short term money gain but bad for long term reputations/confidence/legacy etc.
