ABs lots to little
Could have been a lot lotser and a little littler, but by christ that was a thrashing.
Don't expect anyone to get close to the ABs this Championship regardless of who plays and where they play in black.
Huge gulf.

One thing I didn't realise is that channel 10 in Australia still use that pathetic knobgobbler Gordon Bray.
"Campo would have been proud of that."
I swear that fucker would chop off all his limbs just to smell Campese's shit. piston wristed gibbon.
I'll never complain about the Fox Sports lot ever again.

Yes - for all the shrieking and queen-like dramatics on here, NZ fans don't seem to know how lucky they are.

Nah, I sort of get it. It's about the what should have been given what went on before. I felt a little odd after England had beaten Oz 3-0 down there last year on account of how we let them back into the last game during the final minutes. We beat them but it really should have been more. Fair play to Oz mind for playing to the end. 3-0 and I felt a bit hollow. Strange.

@booboo My knee jerk reaction questioning your forwardness after your coffee shop sheila relationship musings.
Deep down I'm sure you're like all proper rugby men and couldn't give 2 fucks what ABs do or plow outside of 80 minutes...
where they play near perfect rugby for nearly an hour...
And still you naff on like Dr Phil or some such
Just trying (and failing) at giving you a bit of old school ribbing on the bus heading home after a great win.
trying to be light hearted is all Boo (and shocked at your SNAG posting

A lot of my posts over the weekend were alcohol fuelled, as an Irishman I'm sure you can relate.

Aus put up 28-0 in 25 mins.
I know it was over at that point but surely that stat is a concern. The fact we have been outscored in the last 3 games in the 2nd half must give the coaches cause for concern.
Its just hard to understand how you can score such beautiful tries and dominate 54-6 then just fall apart completely. At work today I'm getting "did you see the Wallabies scored 34 points vs the All Blacks."

Just watching a replay, AB’s 54-6 up after about 48 mins when Franks and Crotty were subbed….
AB’s didn’t score again. In the remaining 30 minutes. Wft’s happened to that last 10 mins, supreme fitness, pile it on palava. Getting run down on the scoreboard in the clutch these days
Aus put up 28-0 in 25 mins.
Wouldn’t mind seeing the AB’s missed tackle stats. ALB & SWB combo not flash.

Jeez, Sam Cane needs to pull finger, he didn't win a single lineout, all he does is tackles!

@taniwharugby Neither did our locks and Read based on those stats.
LW must be lineouts thrown in - unless Taylor is super quick.

This is from the SANZAAR website:
TW=throws won, LW=line-outs won, L-S=line-out steals -
the biggest things which confirm my bias in those stats are:
crotty is excellent, and doesn't make errors;
sbw turns the ball over too often (same as dmac who is getting rubbished for it);
barrett gets a free pass on here;
harris is not really where he needs to be yet, coles missing is huge;
sam whitelock might be a bit tired. -
