@ACT-Crusader said in Wallabies v Springboks:

Did someone say cripple fight.....

Scrappy game. Both sides seem to lack cohesion. Some positives for both teams when compared with their last tests, however they struggle with some basics - running away from support, upright carries, lack of patience.

The Pumas would have been 20 points up on either at half time.

The Boks just need to tackle Kerevi and they'll stop all the attack from the Wallabies

[reprobate]

kerevi, rhymes with not ready. that's poor.

What an ignorant fluffybunny.

[Billy Tell]

Cheika remarkably restrained in the box there...

No swear words no broken glass no smashed laptop.

[Crash]

You almost wanted the try to be given to ease Cheika's consternation......IWait said *almost *

[reprobate]

@Kruse if as a TMO you gotta work that hard to do your job, you may as well not do your job. unaustraaayan.

Ok I'm still trying to figure out where this amazing running game of Folau's is. He's not even fit to lace BFA's boots.

The Springboks are playing like old sheilas, as spectators. The Qantas Harmless Wallabies are mediocre, ineffective but rendered effective by the South African blockheads.

[Mattasaurus]

wobblies a man up and all they do is kick kick kick

[Tim]

Don't understand kicking the ball away immediately when you are a man down.

[nostrildamus]

Hooper has a creative approach to entering rucks.

[Unco]

Based on what we've seen so far, the only problem the Argies will have next week is lasting 80 minutes. If they up their fitness they never would've lost that first SA test and would crush the Aussies too.

[Siam]

50 mins into yhis game and 2 points in it. Aussies deserve the win at this stage

But

My heart goes out to our rugby bretheren in South Africa. It must be torture watching Heynekes team trot out this shite. No linespeed and totally reactionary.

You have my sympathy for what that's worth...

[nostrildamus]

These Channel 10 Commentators are doing an excellent job of demonstrating cognitive bias. Although I am being generous with the word "cognitive."

Hmm the Boks seem to be targeting Foley's short passes. Well spotted.

[nostrildamus]

@Siam The boks dont look any slower or less fit than the Wallabies, just lack a bit of finesse and strategy and creativity..

[Billy Tell]

If Argentina hold their nerve no reason they can't finish 2nd in the RC.

[pukunui]

Pretty mediocre game so far. Contrast to the earlier game.

[nostrildamus]

Cooper tries to steal a souvenir Bok jersey. Not that subtle though.

I've just tuned in to two stereotypes. An embarrassing wallaby lineout and Etzebeth trying to prove how how tough he is by fighting an inside back
