No.

Larkham is proud of the Brumbies' whole season. Sounds like he has pretty low standards.
Playing the diplomat

They lost 13 squad members according to Bernie. That is a pretty impressive effort

Impressive 2nd half Canes.
Thought Jordie was the more impressive Barrett. Not for the first time this season.
Dane Coles is a freak.
Yeah BB was rather subdued. He's been a bit off colour for a while now. I suspect he's carrying an injury.
It's easy to forget that Jordie is only 20. Enormous potential.
I heart Coles. 3-0 🎣

I wonder if we just saw how the Bled cup will go down. Would not surprise me in the least.
I wondered the same thing.

Who would want Cheikas job about now.
Cheika would love this. Gives him time to add 20 players to his squad and a month to build for the 4 Nations. hey have a head start on everyone.
True, but at the end of that month he will still name a team of 15 and have no idea who his bench is until they run out.

Larkham having a good cry again at the PC. What a whinging fluffybunny. Bitched about both the Canes tries in the first half and reckons a falcon is a knock on. Whinged about the last maul at the end of the 1st half being pulled down. Also said the Brumbies were much better than the Canes in the 1st half.
The prick did the same thing after last year's quarters loss to the Highlanders as well.
Considering the draw gifted his undeserving lot a spot in the finals, this guy has got some nerve complaining about the decisions in this game.
PC if anyone is interested.

I don't think even a years prep will help this Wallabies side. I would rather a team full of players that have been playing high intensity finals football I reckon.

Dane Coles is a freak, I swear Coles played basketball in another life, he sure does have some nice skills. Yep BB seems to have been off for over a month, his form pre AB's was electric.

@akan004 i'm guessing Larkham didnt have anything to say about Jordie being denied a try off a bullshit forward pass decision.
Not a word...

I think better sides have worked him out, to be honest. He caused the Chiefs few pains while he was "electric" except when moved to fullback, where he can run in open space. Nor were the Crusaders much bothered by him.
Never give him the outside shoulder to run at -- always push him in. Watch the cross-field kick. Mark him particularly carefully when he falls back, because that's where he's really dangerous.
BB's skill set is unbalanced -- he's lightening fast and cross-kicks well, but the rest of his game is fairly standard for a Super Rugby 1st-5. In form DC and AC have much better all-round games IMO. They seem to stand flatter to the line and get the ball to their outsides in better positions.
Time will tell, but I think the days of BB carving up teams more or less by himself as he did in 2016 might be behind him.
