Wtf is wrong with you tonight, take some damn happy pills man!!!
The BC is wrapped up for another year, let’s deal with the expected failures when they actually happen.
-
Why didn't they play Hooper rather than Skelton at lock? He is nearly 2 metres tall and at least has some ticker. (I know he plays 6 normally but he is also an ex-lock).
-
Hard to get a full sense at the ground.
Some thoughts
-
Good crowd and good pyrotechnics but the sound tends to go up. I thought the atmosphere was better under the roof at the Marvel last year but the better game probably contributed to that. To get 84k at a Bledisloe given how the Wallabies are going is a good effort. The G is an excellent venue to get in and out of though.
-
Jordan is something else. We are usually blessed with good wingers but he is on another level.
-
I think we really need DMac in the 23 in the big games come RWC. That first 30 mins or so Wallabies defence was good and at times we needed more variety. Other teams will have that same strong defence for 80 minutes and we will need to mix it up.
-
Jordie gets through an absolute mountain of work and has so many good involvements. Easily our best 12 since Nonu.
-
Roigard is our bench 9. Was watching him very closely and he was superb - his service was excellent and he made a huge difference. So much better than Christie it isnt funny.
-
Wallabies need to take some things off of Gordon's plate. He's had to do everything - goal kick, restart, kick for touch, run everything at 10.
-
Best I've seen Clarke look for ABs for a long time. Might have been last chance saloon if he didn't (Telea far better left wing option though). All the bench was good.

Highlights with Oz Comms -

Great hit
Where is the offside line at a lineout please?
Scooter had already crossed the centre line before the ball was passed to McDermott
-
@MiketheSnow Look where Retallick is positioned. At a 5m lineout he's already in the gap
-

Is quite amusing reading these threads after the fact having not watched the game but knowing the score...I reckon judging by the thread the score woulda been about 10-7 to Aus at the break...

Some of the negativity on here is plain weird. Australia put up a determined effort.
