I was just thinking the same thing. If the disinterested wallabies turn up it could be ugly for them.

Pretty good first half. ABs seemed to get on top a bit by the end with a bit of ball but a couple of penalties closed the gap.
Speaking of which, fuck me Joubert has gone backwards in the last 4 years. He used to be the best. Rucks in this game are a free for all of players off their feet.J Savea playing bloody well. Hope it continues.

They are vigorous, big and small they are vigorous, and they are busy little buggers at the breakdown. They enter them old style, with a couple of big blokes either side up their clacker - haven't seen that for a while. Their backs' hands and passing are good and they all back up all the time. I've enjoyed this first half and no, Australia will not.
That was a sterling bit of work between Ben smith and Barrett - I didn't notice if they had spoken just before but Smith, as always, acted with real initiative. The quick running and passing wasn't working so well and he came up with an alternative on the spot.

Im enjoying the contest the Pumas are bringing to be honest ,
the challenge for them will be keeping it going for the 80

Pumas playing really well. great lines and mostly good hands.
ABs also playing well.
Joubert not having a great game in regards to the rucks and offside - but to be expectedReally entertaining game so far, impressed with our scrum, that second nudge was very horny.
-
@Kruse just in case you and @Billy-Tell forgot, the ABs performed Kapo O Pango in Bledisloe 1
-
Bugger Cane was the best of the forwards so far for me
-
Cane off after an excellent 45 minutes.
Read stepping it up in this 2nd half.
