Carter misses a field goal in the 85th minute - just off centre. The rank outsiders draw - phew...

 

[Scarfman]

It's just like I predicted - an 18 all draw.

Why did we take off Douglas, who was one of our best, and not Higginbotham who got outmuscle all game?

Phipps service is way goo slooooooooow.

TPN's throwing and handling was very very poor.

Gill, what a goose at the end there.

 

[biggsy]

Phipps should not be starting. Sheean far better and mature around the paddock

 

[Slim 293]

At least we spoiled their run.

 

[Scarfman]

Well, the Wallabies really tried their guts out tonight. Doing it for Sharpey, I suppose. Pretty brutal and exciting, if you like rucks. Which we all do, so no complaints there.

I would have liked to win that, but not losing it is pretty bloody good. Good onya boys.

How many weeks will Higginbotham get?

 

[ChargerWA]

Sorry folks, missed the MOM part in the title. If a mod can oblige?

Draw seems very fitting - neither team deserved to win. Wouldn't expect Australia to be happy with that result, they should have won that game, pretty much everything went their way. Joubert needs to have a rest, after tonight I think he's officially lost the plot, pretty much ruined the game's chances of reaching any heights.

My money's on 4

Also broke their run of at least one try per test.

Tremendous effort around the ruck. Well done boys.

Great result given that we were playing without a lot of our best players. There was a bit of inexperience showing in the second half from guys like Hooper and Phipps but theyll learn from that. Against the best team in the world ill take a draw.

It's the only way out players get a rest.

 

[ChargerWA]

Yeah, no real stand outs. Sheehan probably deserved a vote but it's hard to give votes to a guy who only played 20mins.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

How good was it to not hear Marto during the game commentary?

Goose.

I actually thought Joubert was excellent.
