Well, **** And only a small portion of credit goes to the defense.
Our ability to beat defender 1-on-1 is evident, but mostly it's decision making that is killing us. Such a clear lack of patience and a want for the hero pass/kick.
Very hard to watch.
That's test footy. Just hope the ground work we've laid pays dividends.
Coz hanging on desparately and staying in the contest is also test footy.
Just want to see us accept that another 4-5 phases are necessary sometimes. Even if the 2-3 prior ones didn't breach the ad line. Take stock, reset , punch again
And if we are rumbling forward, definitely put the damn boot away!!!

@Chester-Draws I thought he came on last game and made an immediate impact. I'm not a complete Laulala fan, his ball security can get sloppy and I'm not sure he's a world-class scrummager but today and last game he looked ok, I bow to your expertise here though..
Don't get snarky. I just don't think this is a fair comparison given the greenness off the opposition.

@Tim who would you pick in the AB midfield?
-
@Yeetyaah nah ALB is defs a 13. He’s more of a skilled offloader that likes getting to the outside versus the crash ball type player that a 12 usually needs to be.
Foster should have kept Peter Umaga-Jensen in Aus. He’s probably the best suited to make a shift to 12.

@Chester-Draws sorry I was serious! I'm not a prop!
-
@nostrildamus To be honest I don't think there are the options right now. Hoping Umaga-Jensen and Tele'a come on next year.
-
Aussie commentators just claimed the argies best Aussie last week “aiming to win three straight”
-
Akira with the steal, awesome
-
Changes early in the second half:
- Sotutu for Savea.
- Jordan for Jordie.
- Josh for Rieko.
-
Nice work Akira , possibly saved our arse
-
Akira is a man among boys out there

Crash ball 12? In 2020?
One reason our attack is so shit is we think you can still muscle your way through international sides.
