Fuck you @Bones but what constitutes "foul play" these days is fuuuuucking soft

Huh?

Was interesting to see what happens to Argentina when the ref holds both teams to the same standard in terms of niggle and foul play though. Argies really unable to get a roll on.

Hooper really dislikes Williams eh.

Hodge looked shattered. Actually made the comment about letting the country down. Two kicks to win drawn games this year. Poor bastard

Great interview. Loved his passion.

Bashed up Hodge played pretty well actually. The Argies are a tough team, never going to be an easy night.

@Anonymous he dived over the line. Therefore it isn't placing it. Easy.

If the first contact in touch is the ball, you're technically placing it in touch. But yeah, it's grasping at straws to expect a penalty

If we are getting technical then I think his arms touched the ground first so what happens after that doesn’t matter.

I've not seen it refereed like that, tbh. I think unless it is pretty blatant pass into touch or place from a player on the ground, it's straws like you say

Oh and how much weed is Cheika smoking before the games?

[Machpants]

Gotta love stuff reporting

"Despite a frantic final period, the frustrating deadlock remained in what was the Wallabies’ first draw since the 9-6 result against Wales in 2018."

I also liked that the Argies didn't give him a blue shirt.

The Wallabies are such a team of flogs. All plenty talented and as soon as something is actually on the line they turn into blubbering imbeciles that would struggle to win a club match.

World class at winning matches that dont fucking matter though.

To be fair, I'm just waiting for a professional ref to have to call a 8.2.e. (Who is in touch or touch-in-goal, grounds the ball in the opponents’ in-goal provided the player is not holding the ball. ) and get it correct.

Not sure why Rennie took off Thor and Wilson so early.

[Derpus]

@akan004 thor was losing the plot.made sense at the time

Fair enough but he was dominating at scrum time and on defence. All that was needed was a stern talking to from Hooper imo.

[Derpus]

@akan004 Hooper? the worst captain weve ever had could barely cling on to his own rag. Sackable match that

[booboo]

Just caught up with the recording.

Why kick? Dumb, dumb, dumb

[NTA]

ABs just won the trinations

Think I saw that once years ago in Super Rugby. The commentators blew up but the ref was right

There's a lot to like about Matera

[Yeetyaah]

@NTA fucking awesome.
