3rd Place Play Off - Wallabies v Wales.

[light]

That was quite sad.... Offside from the kick and then a forward pass, jesus christ the referee has some questions to answer. Back-line has no penetration.

Maybe the Wallabies will wake up now and start playing rugby again.

Why does watching tonight's game feel like the first date after you break up with your girlfriend??.....all so familiar but a little bit weird. I was just getting into it and then QC (Quade Cooper) did his knee. I feel for him and I really hope he can get back out there next year and perform. I really sensed he was focused tonight and making a few more tackles than normal - heck I even saw him dive head first into a ruck. C'mon boys....you can do it!

Given how crap Hook has been kicking, why did Williams not try and improve the position?

 

[AngrySeahorse]

TPN going in again like a suicide machine. Forward pass for sure but Horwill shouldnt have gotton isolated, support should have supported him, yada yada yada.

TPN hurt, crap. Saia gets a run!

 

[Jay]

That was more of a 'drifts forward' type pass from O'Connor.

What the shit, these are just blatantly obvious decisions.

Terrible officiating

 

[Fredfreduels]

A Fainga'a and Genia need to get in the game. Mafood, TPN, Higgers and Benny Mac are doing well.

 

[No4918]

That decision is incredible.

Our attack hasnt looked near as good since Quade came off. It has to be time for JOC (James O'Connor) at 12 on the EOYT.

Wayne Barnes. What a legend.

I like the balance McCalman and Higgers have in the backrow, both playing well.

Ref aside, Aus is shite again tonight...how much dropped ball/turnovers are we gonna give them? Soft approach and purely lack any real imagination...

 

[teach]

3 points from the wee fella. Some consolation. Still waiting for Wayne to fuck it up for one team.

 

[Bruwheresmycar]

O'Connor's pass was forward. Anyone who thinks that was a blatantly wrong call is just as blind as the touch judge 5 minutes ago.

 

[Dan54]

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.

Sorry IS but skills are not good, holding ball is a skill, goal kicking is a skill. As I said I was hoping for more than this.

Wales have the worst flyhalves in the world

In this side yes, but Rhys Priestland is a talent.

 

[Inside Shoulder]

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

anything can happen in surgery

have another look - it came backwards out of his hand and that is all that matters

 

[tigerland12]

Slipper is playing well also imo

c'mon - these blokes look out on their feet
