Bledisloe I

[Donsteppa]

That’s a big relief!

[Frank]

If Barrett doesn't improve, it might be time for the blonde dynamo (at least his goalkicking is better)

[ACT Crusader]

Great hands and good work by Read to insert himself into the play.

[MiketheSnow]

Accuracy the difference.

The short passing you've been moaning about did the job there because it committed the defender.

[Donsteppa]

If only there was a decent in form first five in New Zea... oh.

[booboo]

6-5 at the half.

On the whole I feel we've been on top but for crying out loud we've blown some opportunities

[Rancid Schnitzel]

If they come out firing they should blow Wallabies away in 2nd half. Wallabies look absolutely buggered. Have to hold onto the farking ball though.

[Mokey]

Oh noooooo. BB did not bring his kicking boots. If it comes down to that Foley will gut us.

He brings his kicking boots about 50% of the time. Quite a good looking guy though. I say keep him in.

I actually think the Aussie defence deserves some credit , we probably aren’t used to this sort of intensity from them

Yeah, we’re not playing too shit. The aussies are playing pretty well too so it’s a good match to watch.

Brodie is the Winx of rugby. Just deadset fucking freak!!!

[Stargazer]

@donsteppa Yeah, but you know. Rolls Royce pack blah blah blah

[Rembrandt]

Was getting super worried when we were going backwards on attack, don't remember seeing that in a while.

Don’t understand the sudden hate for Beauden?

Look BB has been ordinary, but what is RM going to bring with these tactics? The same people were banging on about getting Lima in last year and look what happened. Good luck for any flyhalf with this structure.

He might have got those kicks though.....

Provincialism, the six fingered folk have a new favourite in Mounga.

[ACT Crusader]

We looked quite disorganised in our attack particularly at the ruck. Turned over far too much ball. Defensively we’ve been pretty good.

Squire has been good in his ball carries, getting over the gain line.

It took us a while to get the support play going.

Wallabies ruck work very good. Very physical and have the big bodies to crowd us.

Agreed. Can't remember the last time they had so much sting in their tackling and their line speed has been top notch as well. Barret has never been good against a good rush defence.

[No Quarter]

Be nice if Mo'unga was at least on the bench. He's earnt his place ahead of DMac and should be breathing down Beauden's neck.

Great competitive match to watch 👍
