2012 Rugby Championship Round 3 Game 1 Australia vs South Africa - 8 Sep

[AngrySeahorse]

Well done Ben "Sleepy" Alexander.

Great kick from Barnes but he's limping (queue the "too many kicks" jokes).

Sharpe taking capt?

 

[Happy]

Cooper misses touch again

 

[maxdacat]

Barnes down.

 

[Happy]

Barnes kicks ahead and immediately goes down. Harris finally on.

 

[Ash]

Nope Barnes still on. WTF are they doing?

Blew great turnover ball as Barnes can't run.

 

[Happy]

We need someone to take control, to close this out

 

[p.Tah]

How the hell can you roll away with three Saffas laying on top of you?

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Superbru margin was Gold by 8. Happy for the score to stay the same.

TPN off. Fingers on.

 

[Ash]

Alexander gone now. Really struggling with injuries here.

 

[Happy]

Dennis stands over the ball and doesn't think about picking it up or rucking it back. Penalty Saffers taking the line out 15 meters out. Ben A injured. Ben R back on. Saia F on.

 

[Happy]

Well played Ben A.

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Phew! Lost forward from the Springboks.

 

[Ash]

Great tackling from the Wobs and a knock on comes.

 

[Happy]

Knock on. Thank goodness for that.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

74:21 gone 26 - 19 Gold way.

Saffers just stuffed up a promising attack deep in Gold 22. Lucky break for gold.

Dennis is playing???

 

[Ash]

Poor pass from Phipps but great clearance from Cooper.

 

[Bardon]

74 minutes and first time I can remember SA bringing any real intensity.

 

[Ash]

Shame Cooper dropped that as it looked dangerous. For once the right decision as he has no other real option.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Lineout turnover. Quick ball out the back and what did QC (Quade Cooper) do ? Kick the pill away. &*I*)()&&^%$$
