Now if only we could start cleaning rucks like the English (fuck me, this hurts to say) pack was against NZ.

Can't agree at all. Lots of the forwards have been making hits behind the gain line since kick off. We're kicking because Link wants to target the weak Scottish lineout. Cooper has actually kicked well and Aussie Mike's was a great one. We're definitely hurting without the penetration that...

Forwards are actually setting a good platform but we are falling apart in the 9->First Receiver department Just pull him, Link. White played well in his last cameo and you have 2 halfbacks on the bench anyway.

Genia needs to stay off after the half.

Peyper missing 2 Scottish players playing Hooper off the ball. Also completely missed Hooper niggling the shit out of what looked like Dave Denton when he was on the ground. Was the kickable penalty for not retreating 10m or for a high tackle? It it's the latter that's some shit because...

Simmo.. the Scots had 2 or 3 backs in that ruck, you have to hit that. Forwards still doing a really good job of hitting the Scots on or behind the gain line.

Can't blame him, it's been a less than inspiring 30 minutes on the whole.

Maitland is a really poor defender. That was just shameful by the Scots there.

Looks like Link took note of how badly the Boks worked the Scots over at the line out last week

Few phases of Genia throwing the ball accurately to players running onto the ball and we make 30 odd meters and look like scoring

It's making me miss the Argentinian announcers I had the pleasure of listening to during the Rosario and Perth tests

English announcers calling for a card because Cooper didn't change direction while in the air

It was Folau I think. Shame he didn't play the code where people outside the halfbacks need actual ball skills when he was younger.

Forwards look PISSED. This is fucking great!! Knock 'em back in every tackle and this scoreline will explode

Did the scrum lottery just begin?

It's beautiful.

May need some blankets though, it's gonna be a cold one :confused:

Weather reports have no rain and no chance of rain, between 3-5C and 8-10km/h winds.

Actually, it was very stupid. All it took some of the punters here was watching how lost JOC (James O'Connor) looked playing 10 for the Rebels in the lead up to the Lions. In fact, I was there in person for the Rebels v. Reds game. He was fucking awful. Worst of all he was awful when it came to core skills...

You missed the point. Anyone who watched JOC (James O'Connor) in terms of him being a 10 leading up the Lions and thought, "I can make that a Lions-beating 10" was either making a very stupid decision or an incredibly arrogant one. He was visibly not even a passable 10 at Super Rugby level at the time. I never...
