Kirwan saying the Wallabies deserved to win tonight

Duluth has always had the better rugby knowledge.

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?

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

Cheika seems to forget that first half penalty try Owens also forgot to give (when the Aussie Nr.6 touched the ball while retreating from an offside position only two metres from his own goal line).

Haha Cheika just wants to rip the refs!!! Mate get over it, but love the passion 🤣

akan004

Our defence, especially in the 2nd half is a huge concern though. When the Wallabies needed a try, they scored one. That wouldn't have happend a couple of years ago.

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

How good were the wobs backline tonight? Genia turned back the clock tonight

So what do we do at 15? And also midfield failed again. I wonder if Laumape needs some time with Crotty outside him.

We've got Jordie DMac and NMS along with Dagg. I look at BFAs sabbatical as an opportunity for these guys

@canefan Havili, DMac, BB, Dagg, and NMS are the options in the squad.

Stargazer

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.

@Tim where's Jordie?

@Stargazer said in Bledisloe 2:

@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.

That won't happen. They will be managing players as that Test is just before the EOYT. I expect they will name a team with a few fringe players and rest those that have had lots of minutes this year.

They are all options but I don't know who I would go with. I think I would prefer Dagg get some time there, though his last outing at 15 didn't go so well.
