What was the general feeling on BB and DMac?
Both shit
Beaudy will start the next 2, probably 4, games. Hopefully we'll see some improvement! He needs to practise kicking with a fucking Gilbert ball, fort a start

Blackadder is better closer in
Not sure of that given Blackadder's defence today. Solid player but inexperienced.

Yeah. I’m not suggesting we should start anyone else at 10 if Mounga in unavailable. Just had a bit of a shitter today.

If Savea is out, then Papalii is our only option at 7.
Who is available who has played super rugby? Is Harmon fit? Other than Kirifi, Choat and Havili are about the only ones left standing.
It's irrelevant, we can't use them. They can't be called into the squad because of MIQ places. Unless ABs booked a lot more than they needed

Hooker is a massive problem if Taylor is not right for next week.
I think we are okay-ish in other positions.

@tim said in Wallabies vs All Blacks 3 (Perth):
@hooroo Thought he was very good aside from 3 punts that went too short and too down the middle. Controlled the game pretty well.
No one could kick goals today.
Don’t like cross kicks, his conversions were terrible - but he was really good apart from that.

@machpants It's a good thing we play the Argies first and the Boks last.

taukeiaho is great, needs to work on lineout throws but early days.

Having not read any comments during the game, here are my thoughts.
Defense, outstanding despite letting in 3 tries. We were accurate physical, and bloody effective.
Tight five good, Bower went up a notch, Taylor of old was back. Brodie into it all.Loose forwards outstanding. Akira got through some work, and should have scored a couple of tries, but unselfishly gave those outside him the simplest of tries.
Weber I though was pretty good until he tired and started throwing a few wayward passes.
BB, good but his goalkicking is and always was woeful. If he starts moving forward in big games we need someone else kicking goals.
Midfield, solid and accurate. ALB surely the premier midfielder in NZ (if we didn’t know that already)
Both wingers very good, love love love seeing Rieko pinning the ears back and going for it. Looks to have some real confidence.
JB, red card I though was a fucking shit call. Was looking up at the ball the entire time, extending his foot so he can land safely, not his fault some idiot got too close.
Front row subs, sub par compared to our starters. Scrum penalties, poor lineout throwing.
Back reserves added something, this game was tailor made for TJs running game.
Performing pretty bloody well I think, some of us, including myself may need to eat Foster humble pie if this form continues…
