    I really hope Ash Dixon will be available for the Magpies again this year. He's having a great SR season.

    What part of this is confusing to Pocock? You've used all your substitutions and now another player has had to leave the field, so you're down to 14.

    So I'm guessing after seeing that, it doesn't matter what side you come from.

    Straight in from the side.

    Pocock doesn't even understand the rules that he plays under. Maybe this partly explains why Aussie rugby is so poor at present. He has been a past captain and assume he is full time yet doesn't take the time to understand the rugby laws

    Yeah he's very clever, his hands are going in before his feet are at the gate. But his feet are in the right position a second later so he's getting away with it. Class, clever player (apart from figuring subs) working to the limit of the ref's interpretations.

    Everyone knows it but these clowns with the whistle.

    Happy to score at the end, but geeze, if a team is up by exactly 3 tries after the siren goes they should kick it out immediately.

    I'm not complaining about the player. I'm complaining the refs are poor.

    What a disappointment Aust rugby is now. Their decline is a concern. I believe they can only support three teams (not 4 and certainly not 5) but I wonder now if they even have enough players for three teams.

    His vision was excellent. Nice speed to the breakdown and good delivery.

    Brumbies were rudderless in attack. Their 9/10 combination are inexperienced and pretty lacklustre.

    I notice it was Willie Lose as the main commentator. Not sure if I've ever heard an ex pro player calling the play by play. Actually maybe I recall Steven Bates calling a pre season game, but nothing at this level. I couldn't stand Lose on Radio Sport, but I thought he did a fine job of calling the game, once I got passed my bias.

    @milk it's funny I had exactly the same thought about Lose in this game. I quite enjoyed his commentary this game having previously hated his radio sport and disliking his Sevens commentary. I really didn't expect to.

    Anyone got a video of the cleanout of Pocock that the Brumbies are complaining about?
