Review: Sharks vs Waratahs
In the lead-up to the game there was just one thing on everyone’s mind: Would the Waratah scrum hold up enough to allow the Waratahs running game to dominate? The Match FIRST HALF: Both teams lined up in a very windy stadium with the wind behind the Waratahs in the first half....

Wallabies player ratings vs. Scotland
Well, what a difference a week makes. This week there were some surprisingly average games and one absolute shocker. No one’s going to criticise the number of nines given; there won’t be any. Rewatching, the scrum dominance by Australia was clearer than at first look; the refereeing of the lineout was poor...
