Over under on margin tomorrow? I'd say All Blacks by 25+

At least with Hodge at 10 the wallabies will have time to think about how many different ways they can miss tackles on Clarke when the midfield bombs go up.

Go you Wallabies.

And just on Pocock, the dude is 2nd only to Smith in my book, and if Pocock could have played under the laws Smith did (i.e. now needing clear release of the tackled player) his whole career, he'd be close to number 1.

Sadly looks like our production line of great 7s and backrowers in general will end at Hooper.

Go the Wallabies. I'll be watching like the fool I am.

 

[GotSpin]

Yeah not sure why I'm watching tonight but here we go

 

[BoyBrumby]

Ha, try with his first touch for Wright.

Lovely little chip from Hodge too.

Early days but encouraging signs.

Not a great conversation attempt though, but.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Ok, that was less encouraging.

ABs just stretched the Wobblies across the park and back.

 

[the big bambino]

Seeing an AB being sent off is rarer than a Wallabies win so a good night.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Oooof.

I suppose strictly speaking a shoulder to the chin is a red nowadays, but it does look harsh.

That's the problem.

Ref's left himself with no choice but to send Swinton off.

14 v 14 after 35 and it's not been a nasty game.

 

[the big bambino]

A haha. The square up.

 

[DriveClub]

Lol funny 1st half

 

[BoyBrumby]

Wobblies were sailing very close to the wind here.

Slightly lucky not to be starting the 2nd with 12.

As was mentioned on the commentary, give the players a yellow and put them on report. So soft now with red cards.
Good to see the Wallabies playing well though and bringing good line speed

 

[DriveClub]

All Blacks so sloppy with the passes wasted the 1man advantage

 

[BoyBrumby]

Did one of the comms really just say Hodge "isn't a distributing fly half"?

Isn't distribution pretty much the raison d'etre of a stand off?

Great. ****ing satellite feed dies as I type.

 

[DriveClub]

God the commentary is just the worst

 

[GotSpin]

That was some nice rugby actually

Dumb as door nails comment wasn’t it

 

[Spark]

Nice little cameo by Tupou here at the end. Consistently gotten over the advantage line with ease.

 

[Spark]

Fully endorse the commentary complaints ftr. Yeesh it's bad.

 

[Spikey]

jesus christ koroibete

 

[BoyBrumby]

Fair play Oz. No dead rubbers versus the ABs.

Much better game for the neutrals than last week's shellacking.
