Not the best half of rugby I’ve ever seen. Jesus, that was soft defence at times.
DH looks a little like a deer in the headlights and DMac is messy as fuck.
They have to use Dmac off the bench, if at all. They need to play Beauden Barrett - somewhere.

Serial question here.
Are we happy to lose Bled to be rid of this coaching unit?
I think I just may be!
Fuck no man. Are ya drunk?
Yes. Yes I am.
Wish I was. Might have to grab something to do about that

Our defense look fine (sans that one move)
Attack looks rusty but it's one half.
Easy offside penalties poor.
Sometimes you sacrifice that for intent.
Just poor discipline. Position is points. Leap frogging them down field or giving away 3 is never smart.

Helps watching this dross
To be fair though, Aussie are applying decent pressure

I thought I could get through this game without a drink but I don't think I'll make it. Hope the quality lifts in the second 40.
Talk about dry powder, they must have inhaled it in the changing room. -

We seem to rely on our tight five, locks in particular, for ball carrying. Would like to see our loose forwards used for carrying more.
Akira got used once I think for that. Dalton is good for that too. Bower was surprisingly good for that.
-
If I am looking for positives, Havili continues to look good at 12. Nothing much else to add in the good column though
-
Think we are looking OK at this stage. Set piece good, defense dominant, it looks like ABs just need that 10% more intensity.
-
You guys are delusional, losing will not affect anything, the decision is either already made or an application process is going to happen regardless of what happens, so losing is just another record we lose.

Sometimes, but looks shaky as fuck on defence. ALB is the only back running straight.
-
@old-samurai-jack Bit more continuity with ball in hand would go a long way. We draw penalties quite regularly when carrying.

Havili had been a real mixed bag for me.
-
Can’t agree more with Kirwan. Worst 30mins in 5 years of rugby.
-
Don’t forget that Rennie is a master at making good sides look bad. It’s his real strong point. Picks out all the ways to stop rhythm and patterns.
Remember how he’d send Chiefs side to the Crusaders and make them look like a shambles.
This is not an excuse for Foster just a bit of extra observation to take into account as to why we are looking so disjointed.
As long as we find a way to get past them and win I’m happy. -
