2012 Rugby Championship R5G1 Springbokke vs Wallabies @ the Bull Ring

[Moono75]

case in point, wallabies too many substitutions, down to 14 men, uncontested scrums. No idea how to manage the game.

Who's steering this ship.

So, the idea that a prop can replace a prop to keep scrums contest, then means your 7th player can't replace them? I think teams now will prefer to go to uncontested scrums rather then risk not bringing on a player later in the game. This is not in the spirit of the game in my opinion.

But also, how could the coaches not know this?

Poor from the medical,staff Kearny err how?

Well this has become a bit of a farce really. I watched fat cat trundle off at 30mins and thought to myself, surely this isn't the best plan we come up with? It has bit us on the arse now.

I knew subbing fatcat at 30 mins was dodgy...

Oh if that pass had of come off from Beale that would have been magic.

Now SA on the charge.

A finger hurt?

 

[maxdacat]

Not a try.

 

[ChargerWA]

McCabe has some serious toe.

and some serious heart

 

[maxdacat]

I think I like these uncontested scrums

 

[ChargerWA]

Beale has done OK considering what he has had to work with.

Golden oldies are a laugh aren't they.

Phipps coming in from the wing to take the ball into contact.

The injuries have been very unfortunate but the Wallabies haven't looked likely except for these last 13-14 minutes.

I'll throw in some chewing gum.

 

[badabing59]

Big question is-who is going to be match fit for the Argies?

 

[ChargerWA]

I'm going to drop some dollars on the Argie's vs us next week before the odds change.

Fat cat was subbed at the 30 to good effect in the last 2 wins. Just saying....

Shambolic defence and no grunt in attack to get any momentum going when it counted.
