Shame about Wainwright, he was the only real stand out player for Wales last week.
Only 2 changes in the Welsh side with Botham replacing Wainwright in the backrow and Winnett coming in at fullback with Liam Williams moving to wing in place of last week's debutant Josh Hathaway.
I was hoping we'd see the end of Gats experiment with Grady at 12, but sadly no.
I'm not expecting as close a game as last week, Aus will be better Wales won't.
Aus by 15+He was in the top 3 players on the park for both sides.
It will be interesting how Oz go. They have been very inconsistent over recent years from performance to performance

And I'm not sure how to assess this week based on last week - usually it is good followed by bad. Last week was middling with good signs.
The ruck and discipline were better than recent years, generally speaking. If we keep that up we hopefully improve.
But I've been bitten before...

Don't think you've got much to worry about.
We're very blunt attacking wise, have been for some time. Losing Wainwright from last week who's our main source of go forward only makes Wales weaker.
We'll huff and puff, work hard but won't have enough weapons to trouble Australia IMO.
We're not in a good place & it's going to get worse before it gets better. -

I just want to see Oz play with flair again. So tired of robotic play from various countries all trying to play the same.

I take your point, but I'd rather we just fucking win and not look like complete muppets doing it.

Fuck me Oz have gone all in on the indigenous opening to each test. I am all for reconciliation but it’s almost too much now.

Welcome to Cuntry

Tentative from both sides
Intensity and pace a fraction of the NZ-Eng match

That was great continuity and patience followed by a shit kick
