QC (Quade Cooper) kicks 13-3

10-3 wobs

yeah who is this team in Gold?

I think he was being talked up in these parts for a Wallaby spot....about 2 months ago!

cheers - very helpful analysis.

For the uninitiated amongst us what are the issues with a breakaway switching sides?

What's wrong with 9 tries in a test match?

it seemed indicative of his curious decision making or lack thereof, is all.

+1 He was criticised earlier here for not looking for support, but it was a good break and he did all he could to try and link up. We do need to get better at supporting the ball carrier. The saffas were very good on occasion in getting (legally) all over the tackled player and disrupting...

yes but before that he said clearly said both of them. It just seems odd to say effectively "1 and 2 both penalised" then to say 2 you're fine. He also initially called a five metre scrum then realised it was a 22 drop.

i agree it was a fair call but why not just single out the perp ie Moore?

On that note it would be good to see some post match analysis of what was so bad. This isn't in a we wuz robbed kind of way but merely to highlight what looked like poor decision making all round. The "lamestream" rugby media seem to ignore this aspect. One point that stood out for me...

How was Moore not through the gate for that last penalty? Honestly some of the reffing... Good grinding win anyway boys.

Some good tackles from the Wobs in the first half, but some easy yeards from the Boks on their own scrum.

6-0 after 40 mins. Pretty frustrating from Oz....plenty of spilled ball, knock ons, penalties, wasted chances. Kurtley was close on the buzzer but then it got blown up for half time.

Two more (separate stories) in this morning's NZ herald. One about Richie McCaw's girlfriend wading in with a tweet saying asking Addidas to reduce their price is like asking Louis Vuiton to drop the cost of their handbags! The other adding up the cost of all the other not so cheap tat one can...

Big news over here. Started out with some complaints about the cost of the All Blacks WC jersey. At $220 i can see their point "New Zealand's largest sports retailer is threatening to send the new All Blacks jerseys back unless Adidas lowers the price. Rod Duke, general manager of Rebel...

you should move to New Zealand....plenty of "back fill" rugger stories in the papers here.

I thought it was ok from Ch 9. Good insights from Andrew Slack and George Gregan with some reasonable back up from Sutcliffe and the other guy.
