Boks a bit unlucky

I personally dont like going back and saying 'if' and 'buts'. There was some real creative interpretations of certain rules

 

[Fuller Pilch]

The GREAT Sir Brian Lochore has passed away. A great no 8, a great captain, a great coach.

 

[GotSpin]

Looking forward to another loss

Wallabies looking like rugby players

Weird feeling

 

[GotSpin]

We’ve broken their line more than I’ve seen in a long time

Red card will help too

 

[Heboric]

That red was a bit harsh

 

[GotSpin]

Direct shoulder to the head and neck

It’s a strange sport now

Shoulder charges are straight red while the stuff that causes permanent disability remains part of the game

White & Lealiifano are massive upgrades on Phipps & Foley

That was an amazing game of rugby.

Said to a friend that it felt like 3 games of rugby in 80 mins.

Well done Wallabies.

Also, I'm pleased to see O'Connor back. I know he was a bit of an idiot but the dude is a supreme talent, and frankly losing Folau and gaining O'Connor is even stevens IMO.

Kind of feels strange and weird. Scrum actually looks capable of competing. Next time White is in cover he might want to try and complete a tackle rather than throw his arms in the air appealing for a forward pass.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Congratulations Australia - that was superb. Really worried about the ABs without Retallick - the forwards just got blown away (even before the red card).

What kind of stuff do you mean?

Gotta love how the most dominant sports team in all of sport manages to always look like total shambles come World Cup time.

All Blacks just foxing. Still Red hot favourites. Crazy that Wales could be the #1 team in the world in about 18 hours.

This world cup going to be a **** tonne of fun.

Quality performance from aus. Great attacking force.

I was disappointed in our tight 5

The Lord has spoken. Find something else to do Israel.

Yeah the rare times we seem to beat you come prior to the World Cup. Might be a case of slumming it to give off the illusion of vulunerability. Especially in recent years.

The almighty clearly refused to countenance such a blasphemy on his earth.

In all seriousness not a great performance from the Leekists against a very mix-and-match England.

Be interesting to see if Eddie goes with more of a first XV in the principality next week.
