Oh boy. We've got a game here. Doesn't help that Sonny Bill had four handling errors in the first 8 minutes.

This is hilarious

Wallabies have been abysmal at the basics and still leading 17-0 as the ABs can't catch a cold

Hooper ffs!

Who's this Arnold fuller? Looks exactly like what Aus need.

Most entertaining match I've seen in a while

One of the most entertaining games of rugby I've ever watched. Amazing skills from both teams, excellent refereeing, no unnecessary drama. Great game.

Should have won that but at least reason for hope

Moore should never play again for the Wallabies whilst Foley is a complete hack that cost us the win

Coleman is a weapon

Arnold is potentially the same and showed it tonight

Well done NZ women, much deserved and the best side throughout. England had to go full pelt to beat France for 50 minutes and it showed today.

Just back to the bledisloe, abasolitely amazing game of rugby. Glad I got out of bed for it, after last week I considered not bothering. A real case of what could have been for the wallabies, Foley leaving 9 very kickable points outs there, but played well in general play so did show some class, we just really lack a world standard goal kicker, bring back the days of Matt Burke, Joe Roff etc.

Anyway, cracking game. Fully expect us to get belted by 40 by South Africa.

2nd row stocks looking ok I feel Arnold can continue this form, was impressed by Rodda in his short time on the pitch as well.

I will add, what the **** does retallick need to do to get shown a card?

You know the rugby season is here when Manu's injured. 12 weeks for a repair to his knee meniscus. Sigh.

Boy really is made of papier mache.

 

[Athlai]

Holy ****

 

[Mike5181]

As impressive as that was, it's also kind of depressing.

Gutsy from Argentina today - I thought we were in for a blowout when it was 29-3 after about 30 minutes.

 

[Spark]

huh would you look at that

 

[Flem274*]

when you rely on the all blacks to help you get over a 1 point self inflicted semi final loss in the NPC like

played oz

Incredible to think after our super teams were blotted by kiwi teams and the first test massacre, the wallabies almost pilfered the bledisloe.

Would have if Foley could aim this year.

Pretty awesome that. Forgot the match was even on. World rugby needs that.
