    New Zealand vs Australia - Bledisloe 2, 24th August 2013

    Not only that, he doesn't seem to be bossing his pack around, calling in extra bodies when the pill might be lost etc. A few times over both games he just seemed to look on as the ABs worked a turn over that may have been prevented if Aus committed a couple more bodies to the ruck.

    I agree that Aus need to make more of the opportunities to score tries. However taking the 3 points on offer isn't such a bad idea. The ABs score in multiples of 7 and 3. As well as scoring more tries they also scored more penalties. They just need less chances than any other test nation to...

    I agree. If you're going to pick QC (Quade Cooper) you have to just let him play his natural game. If you want to play a low risk game plan then pick someone who has that as their natural game. At test level you can tweak and refine a 10s play, but you can't completely change it and still expect them to...

    They picked up on the Aaron Smith incident in the analysis on Sky. Not sure if he'll be cited as with the citing process not very much is predictable.

    Disappointed for the Wobs, but can't honestly say they deserve better than the final result. ABs looked like they were comfortable throughout the majority of the game. By contrast Wobs seemed to panic when there didn't seem to be much pressure on them. ABs definitely should have received a...

    Genuine question and I don't know the answer myself. Have the Wobs won a contestable kick so far tonight?

    It was the Read one they were talking about at the time. Missed what they said about the Nonu incident.

    Lucky the ABs knocked that one on, but they were much quicker to react than the Wobs.

    Excellent break by JOC (James O'Connor), great defence by the ABs.

    Fair play fo Sean Fitzpatrick basically calling it a stone wall yellow card during the half time analysis.

    Aus have been better than last week for much of this first half. But when they've fucked up they've fucked up spectacularly.

    That was just plain stupid.

    Don't think you can blame him on that one. Must have been the assistant that called that one, he had his back to the incident.

    AB really finished that one very well. However I was surprised that not one Wallaby came even close to correctly reading the kick return let alone getting into a position to challenge for it.

    It's amazing that a well executed hook in the scrum is such a talking point in the commentary. Can't wait for the time the changes are properly bedded in and the hook is just a run of the mill thing, like in the old days.

    Wobs doing a lot of good things so far. But they need to cut out the silly errors and they'll get their reward.

    Why are the Wobs rushing up in defence so much? They did it a bit last week as well. They're creating gaps for the ABs and it's not like the ABs need anyone to do them any favours.

    Beale to Tahs, where?

    With a one year contract there's something in it for both parties. If it doesn't go well then the Tahs have only taken a one year punt on him. They're not stuck with a player on their books they can't offload without paying out his contract and Cheika has a spot in his squad for a player that...

    Beale to Tahs, where?

    I don't think there's such a thing as an NRL club know around the world. If it's true it's a pity to lose such a talent from Rugby but the way he's headed we might have already seen the best of him. Still wish him all the best in NRL and hope he's a success as that should also mean he finally...

    Where did we go wrong? Wallaby Recovery thread.

    It's good to see G&GR back to it's argumentative best. Between the announcement of the team and the game it was like the Stepford wives around here with everyone agreeing.
