Aussies need to bite the bullet and play a bit of territory ,
Poms look a bit under the pump at this end of the field
Yeah, I mean you take away Aussies stupidly running out of their 22 after each score and that's half the job for England not done

The nerve of the English fans to call the ABs cynical.
Tim Horan giving it the "they're happy to give away a penalty"
-
@mariner4life both England tries have come from poor errors....not under alot of pressure either
-
@mariner4life said in RWC: England v Australia (QF 1):
If Aus didn't follow up points by trying to run from the 22 they are probably in front
They finally kicked it, and didn't even make it outside their 22. Fuck they're useless!
-
Aussie playing well...except for the stupid tactic of not taking territory in their own 22. England have created 1 try and been gifted another but otherwise haven’t done match. Pocock would love to take that no look pass back. If, IF, Aussie score a try first after the break then game on.

Reckon that tackle went beyond the Hz
Dare I say it, excellent refereeing.
Hard to ping Hooper for that tackle when Vunipola basically tripped over Latu.
Latu was the one I was looking at. Grass cutter charge I thought.

Perfectly executed tackle in line with current WR directive to reduce head injury.

I reckon this Pom side has a bit of downhill skier about it ,
Looks great going forward , looks a bit shakey going the other way
-
fuck I hate them letting the subs come on to celebrate....

Can’t say I’ve ever seen a downhill skier ski uphill...

I don't see any evidence of coaching in this Wallaby team outside of set piece. Although it's hard to tell when there's no space because the defence is offside and Genia removes any remaining space by running sideways.
-
OK, so what changes do you make if your Cheika? Still in the match, but a good start with points is absolutely imperative.
For me, White comes on for Genia. Toomua comes on for Lealiifano, who hasn't been direct enough. Koroibete is being schooled by Watson, so I'd drag him, out Petaia on that wing and bring JOC into midfield.
Upfront, keep things as is and then roll the changes from the 50min mark.

Garces and his frog mates is utter cow dung. Some of the calls is unfathomable. All other teams should be glad the missed them
Really? Think he’s been fine.

Should disallow the try if it happens

@Billy-Tell missed a few critical things.

Stuart Barnes, on the aussie feed states, when describing Slades deliberate off side "that's Conrad Smith for the last 8 years, deliberate and cynical" in a comparison between eng and nz.
Steady on Stu
I love it that the world hates us
