The result was that the jumper looked to be reaching towards the opposition try line in order to secure the ball but in fact was catching...

    Spiro's article today

    Sprio seems to firing in all directions today. http://www.theroar.com.au/2011/10/20/remove-the-knives-deans-must-stay-on-as-wallabies-coach/#more-53034 Apart some factual errors (e.g. 2007 wasn't the first time Aus didn't make the semi finals) he is also either reinventing history or...

    Wallabies v Wales
