Why do Australia play in orange these days?
2 or 3 years ago, Rugby Australia did a review of all the ways they'd been fucking up and passing off fans. One of the things they found was that changing the colour of the jersey every year or two was maybe not a great idea - it kept changing from gold to muscanary yellow to orange to mustard. So they said we'll run a fan survey, and whatever they choose we will stick with.
They got a few classic shirts from over the years, and the 1991 jersey won the poll. 1991 was a lot more orange than any recent jerseys, so that's what they wear now.
Unfortunately it's coincided with them starting to play like the Dutch national team.

@Billy-Tell All on a whim as soon as Eddie left England. Zero planning. Much as it is now.

@Canes4life if the Wallabies do get knocked out , all the mugs that sacked Rennie and bought Eddie in should be sacked .
I have probably just reversed cursed him 🤦🏻♂️Was he sacked for rugby or political reasons?
Dave wasn't Australian.

Wales far more controlled so far, just lacking a bit of penetration. Good kicking game
-
LOL nice to see that typical Aussie scrum BS get called for what it is... (they got away with it way too much in SR and RC)
-
@Mattasaurus Pray tell for those of us following via threads.

@game_film
Basically wheeling or walking around the scrum .... in the same bag of tricks of not taking the hit etc.. Barnes had none of it. -
Jeez Aussie are a shambles. Selections are mud, they look poorly coached.
Pathetic for a WC side.
-
I would suggest Aussie needs to score next - otherwise it could be Aussie Aussie Aussie, gone gone gone (Foster still has a chance at matching it though)
-
Try to Wales. Chip over the top with no fullback covering.
Australia looked cooked.
-
Sayonara Australia. What a disaster since jones arrived. They’ve barely won a match
Anscombe was always a classy player.
-
Australia look like they are half asleep the whole time. Nothing is done with urgency, what do they even do at training?
Bye bye Australia, bye bye Eddie.
-
Yup hard to see the Aussies coming back from that now...... Anscomb with a lovely chip through (BB take note- not a dinky shit cross kick)
Aussie gone - looking like a shambles now
Can we get Valentini to change nationality in a week?
-
And yet the ARU are the ones making all the demands of NZRFU regarding SR and RC - i say fark off you are dragging us down with you
-
Samu Kerevi is a shadow of his former self. Eddie's "coaching"?
-
@Mattasaurus focus on our partnership with Japan
