Springboks v Wallabies

[Rapido]

Boks dominated again on the traditional posession and territory stats.

[pakman]

The Wobblies never quite recovered from gifting Boks a seven point start. Had it been within ten with ten to go, they could have taken the three and Boks would have had to toe the line much more. Wobblies lineout a shocker. Ended with Hupah as main jumper!! Ruck ball protection non-existent at times. Watched last ten on double speed it was so bad.

[Rapido]

Aus turned down a lot of kickable 3s. But, even coming from me who is a take the 3 sort of guy, it never felt like the wrong decisions.

That's what chasing a game can do.

Didn’t catch this , who won ? Expecting a big game from the wallabies to get them back on track a year out from a Rwc .

I'm watching this now.

I just fell out of my chair on the 35th minute. Jerome does know that rule after all? No attempt to find a way to weasel out if it.

Didn't bother watching. Please explain.

@jegga Boks won 23-12. Aussies lurch from one poor performance to another.

"Oui, Jerome. Ok, listen carefully. I shall say this only once. We have a deal".

Cheika to be gone.
Aussies to make a Hail Mary play for Scott Robertson????

[taniwharugby]

@frank would he want to follow Deans' footsteps?

Says he wasnt ready for the ABs, not sure he'd rush over the ditch.

[Frank]

@taniwharugby
I agree he won't take it.
But I think it's possible the Aussies might try.
They really are in a dire situation.

I didn't watch it either. From all reports the winner was the NRL.

[jegga]

Please let them hire Scott Johnson .

Please.

The man , the myth , the mullet . You know it makes sense.

[Virgil]

How many tests have the wobs lost this year?

[KiwiMurph]

@virgil 6 by my count. 2 vs Ireland, 2 vs us, and 1 each to Boks and Argie.

[sparky]

Another terrible performance from the Wallabies. Taxi for Mr Cheika?

[NTA]

Rugby Australia can't afford to pay Cheika out.
They can't afford to hire a new coach.
Neither situation would improve the player pool, coaching pool, or pathways.
Welcome to Australian Rugby.

Of course, picking Beale at 10 again was always going to work out one way.

I haven't seen the game. Why bother?

[Bovidae]

I thought Aust got beaten up in the forwards, and the Boks certainly dominated the collisions.

[Virgil]

That pass in the first minute from Beale makes Jordies quick throw in a couple weeks ago look like a genius move

Sorry mate , I was trolling/gloating.

Which is no shock as our pathways are so supidly weak
