Academic level whinging.
Who the hell signed the grant for that?
It's not even factually proven, high heart rate can mean over arousal, which is what we normally see as the ABs often are crap from the start. I was very happy when other teams did the track suit stuff. Pathetic

So, we will win the game if we do a bit of this apparently. Must get the message to the coaches immediately.
Hopefully our forwards will be too busy to fall in love.
I heard that Eben was triggered by Alaalatoa asking if he even lifted.

This Thursday night game feels really weird. Like, I'm at work and not really hyping for it. It's like it's just going to sneak up on me tonight.
I'm at work 20 minutes from the ground and fizzing / counting the clock.

I’m a 5 minute tram ride from the stadium and despite a grey typical Melbourne day, there’s quite a few people out and about. I’ve seen a few people wearing AB and Wallaby jersey’s and scarfs.

@ACT-Crusader i work across the road from the intercontinental where the wallabies must be staying, saw a few of the out and about around the place
Were also and 15mins from the stadium

Well... it's all well and good for you folk in the canary-yellow timezone(s).
Here - sitting at work, stalling, trying to figure out how to not be already plastered by a 9:45 kick-off (probably actually 10pm - cause Australia)
And if any fluffybunny suggests "self-control" - well... fuck ya. That's not one of my things.
Drinking is one of my things. And all of my other things are done accompanied by drinking.
Except motorbike riding - but I'm not going for a goddamn motorbike ride on a Wellington September evening.Fuck it - I'm going to the pub to sit and think about this.

Can the real ABs finally show up?

Based on @Duluth 's challenge in the other thread
Tonight is an interesting indication on if the ABs have really learned things in their last 3 games. One one hand did they note what made us good in the two wins? But most importantly, what made us so very ordinary in the loss?
I expect the ABs to win, and win well. But then i feel like i always think that.
But the Wallabies aren't so shit that if we go away from the tough forward stuff, stand fucking shallow, and go side to side, and our attitude isn't there, they can't tip us over.
A solid pragmatic performance will net a double digit win. A good performance will net a 20-pointer
Getting tipped over by this Wallaby team missing that many good players would be the worst result of the comp so far. Yes, even more than that fucking Argentina performance.
