After watching a replay of the test
Fark, you're keen. I struggled to maintain interest through the game - it seemed both sides were playing a very limited gameplan and not showing much at all.
I was just focusing on a couple of things. Kicking being one of them.
The Wallabies breached the AB defensive line numerous times (something McLeod will need to rectify) but the scrambling defence was very good. Desperation tackles from the likes of Savea, Taylor, DMac, Ioane and BB.

I got hard reading this, his ability to interpret what he sees correctly is probably why he’s so terrible at reversing a car.

Can’t be easy going from player in a golden era of Australian Rugby to comments man during the current rabble.
Seeing them get their asses handed to them from a team that at times doesn’t get out of 3rd gear but still can win by 20 points. -

Good to see "Comical Eddie" Jones influence still lingers in the Wallabies...

This thread is lacking discussion on how many more points than the Wallabies Akira would have scored if only he was selected by that coaching team who clearly can't afford Sky.
Be fair, at least there hasn't been any mention of Charlie Ngatai as the answer to our midfield problems.

The answer is ALL, we would have won by all the points more

@tim don’t know why more teams would not use this move simplistic in its Activation,but I guess you still need a bit power backed up with a bit of pace to finish

Yep I enjoyed that too.
It's so recognisable that feeling of seeing a move comes off and just being stoked.
Heard one of them said it had never gone that well in training.

2nd try of the arvo that only comes off because our scrum is absolutely dominant, and yet the props can't get any love in the voting

against Australia, it's hard to cover yourself in glory as a prop. You do your job, and the fancy pants show ponies get the plaudits.
ever 'twas thus

@tim Ioane did a lot there - straight past Genia, and then sucked in two defenders. Sweet as try, loved it!
Edit: thanks for the updated link!
The hard straight line he ran committed defenders and left space, in particular unguarded space, for BB.
