Wallabies v Wales I

@Catogrande said in Wallabies v Wales I:
An athletic second row partnership and a strong, balanced back row. Both look good to me. I have doubts about the centre partnership - I agree with @pooler-fan (I think) who felt that Gats was trying to recreate Jamie Roberts with Mason Grady purely on account of he's big. Early days though so I might be being a little unfair. If I was a Wales fan <shudder> I'd be worried about throwing those two half backs in but then again, it is only Australia. Apologies to @ACT-Crusader @NTA et al but, well, you know.
I can take being called a one-eyed Cantab, even some of the more colourful descriptions held for Crusader supporters, but never ever ever have I been insulted like this before!
An Australian supporter??? If we were at a pub…

Abject apologies. I’d assumed you’d lived over there long enough to have a bit of Ocker rubbed off on you.

Good interview, but why host it in an aircraft hanger

Slipper shouldn't be playing test rugby.
Surely a reflection of the limited options available to Schmidt. Still can't believe he's considered the best of the rest given his age and how prone to injury he is.
A younger Welsh prop should be able to do a number on him.
And Tupou's charmed life continues when you look at his work rate and errors.

Schmidt’s cunning plan. Low work rate = fewer errors.
Genius when you think about it.

That would be an achievement in Canberra!

That depends on if they pay the extra

I've never noticed 'Awstralia' before. I like it, it sort of looks like a sympathetic 'Aww, Straya'

Would have made sense a few years ago but even Qantas gave up on them.

Will be interesting to see how Taine Plumtree goes at 6 for Wales.

Nice touch M Hooper getting a standing ovation.

Probably because the fixture is in Sydney.

Have to say Welcome to Country needs a time limit.
Scrap it and bring back Waltzing Matilda.
