3rd Place Play Off - Wallabies v Wales.

[RedCard]

Oz seem far more up for this game. A bit messy this first half.

Picking a loosehead to cover Adam Jones has backfored for Wales.

My diagnosis is ACL - poor bugger: he might get back mid 2012 s 15 season, if I'm right. It can be a career ender though.

Doubt it will be career ending. They do them all the time in footy and is normally 8-10 mths and they are back.

It's all confidence for quade if it is a reconstruction, with th way h steps he was bound to do one sooner or later, but with his ag sooner is a bad thing, it will happen again and might cause him to change his playing style in the long run.

Yep WJ, perhaps I was expecting too much, but after all talk this week from Wallabies and Welsh camp, I was expecting both teams to at least do basics a bloody sight better than this. I sitting here having a beer waiting to see an enjoyable high paced and skilled game both teams have talked about, and it turns out to be just that AGAIN bloody talk.

I reckon the skills up there and they're having a go at least. Except for the JOC (James O'Connor) chip kick the tactics seem pretty expansive. Got to expect a few errors i reckon these blokes have played 7(?) games in 6(?) weeks.

He is actually playing pretty well though.

playing Well,not pretty well... Lose that gut, will make a big difference in the scrums

 

[Bardon]

Strange game so far up to half time. The intensity is there but the handling is like something you'd see from a first run out in a warp up game.

 

[No4918]

Physios saying ACL for Cooper.

 

[Tangawizi]

Well that is terrible news for Reds fans. All SuperRugby fans really.

Thank you Nathan Sharpe!!!!!!!!!

 

[tigerland12]

The Genia kick sums up his tournment, fucking terrible.

 

[Bardon]

Wales don't seem to have an accurate goal kicker in today's team on current form.

 

[minorbird]

Hook Genia, get Burgess on!

 

[Blackjack]

We are so badly coached. We look confused about what to do with the ball. Granted all the injuries must be making it harder, but a game plan would help.

 

[Bardon]

Nice try there but how forward was that pass.

 

[minorbird]

Wayne Barnes strikes again...

 

[tigerland12]

Worst call of the tournment so far? Lucky this is a nothing game

 

[maxdacat]

Some f*cking atrocious work at the breakdown there from oz.

 

[Fredfreduels]

Wales have the worst flyhalves in the world

 

[AngrySeahorse]

The way Hooks been kicking I expected his attempt at goal to go backwards....

Pretty marginal. Unfortunately so marginal the out of position touchie would not have seen it.
