It's instructive to me how little I see Wallaby supporters discussing this result.
Pretty sure all the Wallabies supporters frequenting on this forum have.
But yeah out in public? Not much.

Quite interesting how the wallabies played like France, off the nine. Ten was rarely actually first receiver, 9 made all the play.
Doesn't seem too work as well as it did for France, tho!
I haven’t watched but why would you do that when JOC is 10? Like our mate Quadey from Tokoroa, JOC is a playmaker first and foremost. The type of 10 that is always looking to set someone through a hole or a wide gap and if it isn’t there put the ball into space.

Yeah it is a bit bizarre, it was mentioned in the Roar he took the ball as first receiver 3 times all game

Just watched the highlights - knowing the winner, and that it was by a decent amount. But... fuck... did not expect THAT.
I was expecting an Argie score in the high-20s, early 30s. But... 48? WTAF?
Skimming through the thread, it seems like the ref might have been working on the promise of 1 or 2 argentina senoritas for evening entertainment? Deserved result, but not the "blow"-out the scoreline suggests?
