Was going to happen eventually. I blame SBW with a ridiculous grubber with about 3 minutes to go.
Barrett >>> Sopoaga.
SBW was probably our best player.
Nah, Read was.

Absolutely not. He had some good moments but no way our best player imo.
Best player overall was folau.

What a shit performance. That second half was rubbish. Australia just held the ball and we didn't. Only leading by one at half time was crap after how well we had played in the first half. Well done Australia, good win
Perenara kicked a hell of a lot of ball away.

NZ were awful. Squire is the worst player in recent memory. A worse six than Todd Blackadder - he really is that bad. Makes no tackles as the first tackler, has no impact as the second. Inspects rucks and doesn't hit them. Against a decent defence he can't even carry the ball. Completely missing in this game, just fucking useless.
The fact that Hansen selects him means that he is as dumb as he looks and sounds. With Smith gone we are in for some mediocre performances.
There was zero intelligence displayed today in any facet of the game.

Not sure how much that was great play by the Wallabies or crap by the All Blacks. They gave away so much ball with misdirected kicks in=field or Hail Mary chip kicks. Then they turned into tackle bags for 15 phases. Looked tired and uninspired. Wallabies wanted the win more.

The same Read who gave away two silly penalties in a row in the first half - oh wait, your weekly Crusaders selection extends to MOTM too I see ;).

Maybe, but I think we’re worse at 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,14,and 15.
That’s not to say that the Wobblies aren’t playing well.
Well done Australia, good win. Cleeeeeaaaaarly the better team, which is worrying, because I'm happy to stand by the statement I've made here. We're a shittier now team than we were two years ago, there's no really nice way to say it.
Sure, we were missing a few first teamers, but even then I don't really think that the 2017 team - at full strength - is better than the 2015 team - at full strength. It'll make international rugby interesting, at least, but right now we are very dependent on our second row.

Well played Wallabies. Should have won by more. They smoked us. Won the collisions and the loose balls - they really wanted this.
DMac had a fucking mare - who knew a midget error prone fullback who makes bad decisions wouldnt work out in the wet?
SBW had a great game aside from that dumb grubber - but Ofa deserves more criticism for his dumb shoulder charge.
We got smoked up front. Whitelock looks out of gas.
Sopoaga was rocks and diamonds. Not what you want in the wet.

Now that is the sort of (over) reaction I have come to love on the fern.
Only missing a reference to Kaino
Squire has had some good moments and some average ones this season. Work in progress for sure.

If there's one thing I can't stand it's giving the ball away in good attacking positions with shitty kicks.
If there's one thing I can't stand more than that, it's some fucking idiot doing it when down by a couple of points with minutes to play.
Best game from you in ages SBW. Apart from that bit, you game losing dimwit.This. Plus one thousand.

Squire was called one of the best finds of the season earlier in the RC when he had a brilliant game; now he has a bad game, and suddenly he is the worst? I don't buy either. He's a good player, and until they find a better one, they just need to work on improving him. They have to, because Kaino isn't go to last much longer.
