Firstly, good effort Wallabies. Turns out last week's first half effort was more of a fluke than the second half.
I was wondering about that - but, we were at home this week and struggled to win.
Secondly - fail on behalf of the AB coaches not to identify that. We spent quite a lot of this game playing like the result was a foregone conclusion and buried ourselves in a ditch for a while by not playing proper test rugby.
Thirdly - Man of the match - Nepo Laulala. If our scrum had been less dominant in that game, we would have been well beaten. Coles and Moody can take residual credit. No more of this Ofa bullshit, Hansen!!!
Fourthly - second man of the match, Rieko Ioane. Looked like an AB back out there, when several others didn't.
Fifthly - show some class Chieka. It's not fucking soccer!!!

SBW had a very poor game
He had a great game - contender for Wallabies' Man of the Match...

Good on the wobs for coming to play but I can't help feeling like we did all we could to lose that. Did just enough, which showed mental fortitude but it shouldn't have been that close
AB fan syndrome.
If the opposition makes errors, it's because the ABs force them into it. If the ABs make errors, it's because they just played shit
Maybe, just maybe we forced you into a few errors and you eventually shook it off?
I do think ABs deserve criticism for not adapting though. Wallabies for sure forced them into errors with sensational defence but part of that is because they knew what was coming attack wise. ABs needed to go up the middle more than side to side.

@akan004 Cheika obviously missed two AB tries being disallowed.
With a coach who always feels the world is against his team, they will never improve.
Foley reckons the Wallabies were in control of the game right throughout. Is that why you gave up a 17 point lead, you farking idiot? I really hope we demolish them in Brisbane. Sick of them talking themselves up all the time.

Duluth has always had the better rugby knowledge.

It's a deep rooted syndrome mate
Your lot played great and pressured us but look back at all the unforced dropped ball, the silly errors -
Haha Cheika just wants to rip the refs!!! Mate get over it, but love the passion 🤣

I thought Owens was fine, few unfortunate calls from the TMO and a few missed calls from AR but overall controlled it well.

They just showed a few examples of why Dmac's lack of height is a problem. When competing for the high ball with a much taller player (Folau, who obviously won the contest), when isolated at the back of the field (being run over) etc. It's clear why opposition teams will target him.
