Too all who are bagging Barrett; all I have to say is world player of the year 2016,17. Put that in your pipe and smoke it

And what of the Wallabies? Well selected, in form, well prepared, opposition dont play great, and they get hammered at home
Smashed at set piece. Unable to generate anything with the ball they got. This has to be soul destroying.
What is the point of Hooper and Pocock? Pocock is good at turnover penalties, but not quick turnover ball. Made the most tackles though. So what is hooper doing? Can they play both and actually win? Especially if it hampers the set piece?
If folau is gone they are fucked

@mariner4life did you not watch the test against 14 man France a few months ago, that was a ton worse. The second hand was good to great, great cos of BBBR. Beaudy be into the game and was controlling well by the end

That's the worst winning performance i can remember, and we hammered them.
Beauden Barrett is Simon Mannix with wheels. If he was slow, he would be an NPC player.
Our pack is good, retallic and read are the two players that elevate us to great.
I am biased, but a great defensive lineout us the best weapon in rugby.
Turn over ball in to points wins it. And that's with s ome sloppy stuff in those passages. Fuck knows what we take out of it? Defend well, win set piece.
Ah go fuck a dildo. Look mate your one-balled little hobbit ain't coming back and Bastian Schweinsteiger's little brother is nowhere near BB yet. Deal with it..

If you fluffers are happy with barrett I'm happy for you. There was a lot of tongue in cheek stuff in the thread before the game but I'm deadly serious now.
Barrett is still great from broken play. And showed tonight. But against a settled defense he just doesn't have the answers.
In the first half he was awful when the Wallabies were aiming up. In thd 2nd when it opened up he looked better but if you were watching the basics were still poor. Passes hit the deck, he threw that terrible intercept that led to their try, his kicking from hand is short, and his goal kicking is substandard.
He didn't steer us when it was hard, in fact he was the source of a few turnovers
In no way is DMac the answer. So i hope mounga can be.

33 pt 2nd half was too much fun but BBarrett drove me nuts 1st half with that catch, turn, 2-step trot towards 2nd 5 and telegraphed shovel pass to his outsides. Aus were sweating on it bigtime. Papers over the cracks when he runs amok later. Although as someone said, maybe it was part of a setup so they'd be expecting it and he could straighten his running later once Aus were knackered
spewing Rieko got subbed at 45th min and missed the jailbreak action to come, Naholo the benefactor there
Goodhue with a solid downpayment on a tenureship at centre. Poor Crotty, of course before the anthems have even petered out he runs into his new centre partner's head with his chin. The poor bastard is just fucken doomed.
Bloke's career must be in question.

@Rancid-Schnitzel @mariner4life
Calmly please gents.
We won ...
Insult each other nicely please. Barstool rule.

I would have called him worse in the pub!!
Tonights game also made old stevey jones' article even worse given Foley's game tonight.
Jesus Gregan is delusional about where the Wallabies are.

- Does that make him immune from criticism?
- Do you think he was even the best player in the AB's last year let alone the world? (2016 he was best player in the world by a huge margin).

I wouldn't be in the pub. I'd be too busy banging yo mamma.

Actually I agree with some of your concerns about the first half but that Simon Mannix comment triggered me. You take that back.

Too far you reckon?
I'm actually surprised the cantab mafia haven't piled in here en mass

If you fail to see the brilliance of Mannix play then you really can’t be taken serious
