Incredible win. We were cooked 15 minutes in and to come back and score 38 points against the Boks at altitude is unreal.
JOC (James O'Connor) was shaky at the start but was huge on defence and threw some incredible passes.Jorgo is a freak and Wright had them in all sorts.
Unbelievable!

Also we must be one of the best loose play counter attacking teams going.
Wright, Jorgo, JAS in loose ball counter is nuts

That’s how Australia should always play rugby

JAS worth every cent, half the team is dead after that, Jorg is the greatest 20 year old to ever pick up a footy, the legend of JOC (James O'Connor) rolls on, McReight really stood up after being bottled by the Lions, the wallabies are back, rugby is alive and I have an incredible amount of lead in the pencil.

Agreed. Not without error, but some strong carries, fine passes, and mature decision making.
Even if he doesn't get the chance to pull on the Gold again, this is a pretty fine cherry on top of his redemption arc.

Schmidt just said Harry is walking better and not as bad as they thought, so hopefully he’s okay.

Not to get too cocky but it feels like at this point our best opposition is soft tissue injuries at training

As it turned out - we can do a bit.

Also the bench was great.
Bell back to his ways with some immense carries and that ball to Wilson. Tate doing Tate things, such a great runner in traffic. Thought Nonggorr was really involved and big in defence too, strong carries from Gleeson and thought Kellaway was good.
Tupou unfortunately looked back to his old ways and a bit at sea in that first half, but then so did most of the forward pack bar McReight.

I wonder how much of that is the defence pattern though, combined with the fact we had no early ball. Early on guys like Slipper, Frost, Wilson, Pollard, Hooper - you could see they were all working hard but just seemed caught by the pace of the game. At one point we had a penalty in the bottom corner and everyone looked out on their feet. But they kept hanging in and turning up and, as the game wore on all of them started making more and more positive contributions.
