The way the Aussie backs have been falling he should have gone a 2-6 split

I’m surprised they haven’t dusted off Larkham.

The fact that Hodge is starting shows that they are scraping the bottom when it comes to available backs.
If Lolesio gets injured I guess they’ll play Nic White at 10.

@NTA wouldve preferred Frost.
And Petaia for Wright.
Isn’t he still injured?
-
@ACT-Crusader Not that I am aware of. He played the last test.

The question for tonight is, will the Boks do their normal implosion they seem to do in Aus? Not sure if it mental or what. We know the Wallabies will try to keep them moving and avoid the set piece as much as possible to wear them out, so will be well worth the watch this test.
-
@Dan54 don't think they will - in the past they've tried that under game plans that didn't win RWC.
This time it will be more clinical and highly effective. We don't have a Folau at the back to field bombs, as one point. Very vulnerable to the high ball

Wow , what a start from the Wallabies

WTF, I didn't even know this game was on now. Confusing start time.
Perfect timing considering the rugby community is all at finals fixtures. RA is retarded.

You don't go out after dark in Radelaide.
You might end up in a barrel of acid...
I still haven't made it down there, my opportunities to go have lessened now that I've quit my job so wont get to go on the company (I was going to write a post in the happiness thread about by job situation but there's no way I can get any sympathy after your post today).
