Australia v NZ. Bledisloe Cup Series 2024. Sep 21, Sep 28

[Bullrush]

It's the worst game in the 2024 TRC by far

Not by a long shot. I've watched U12 rugby games more competitive and entertaining than the 40-point thrashing the Wallabies got a few weeks back....

If Proctor made even ONE of those errors he'd probably never be sighted again.

The sheer thought of Proctor making an error keeps Ioane in the team.

Yet they found no room for Hoskins Sotutu.

Auckland Blues voodoo continues.

Last week was about the same in quality.

The Wallabies getting humped by 50 was objectively lower in quality.

Their way is bright, but it leads to darkness.

So the way of the darkness is brightness which leads to darkness?

 

[Wilson]

The sheer thought of Proctor making an error keeps Ioane in the team.

Yet they found no room for Hoskins Sotutu.

Auckland Blues voodoo continues.

As hard done by as Sotutu was, Sititi is nailing his chances. He's been excellent the last two weeks and is really repaying that faith showed in him.

 

[Merrow]

Bit rough on Wilson, made some great carries and big defensive efforts. Dropped a couple too many late in the game which ruined it.

Would be awesome to one day see the wobs put in a full 80min performance. One day...

A couple? He gave them the dropped/ball back 4 times. He’s the forwards version of rocks and diamonds

 

[Shiggins]

Rieko Ioane

At centre his current status reminds me of the later years of Joe Roks that dragged on and on but NZ couldnt let go of him either as his previous searing exploits were burnt into our retinas like so many ghosted phantom limbs.

He seems to have free reign to make as many errors as he likes and never get dropped. If Proctor made even ONE of those errors he'd probably never be sighted again.

do you like rieko at centre ?

 

[Dismal Pillock]

do you like rieko at centre ?

No.

He's keen and sharp on defense and is a pest at slowing down ruckball and his pace bails him out of any misreads...... but on attack he still can't pass for shit. Seemingly off either hand ffs. Plus his handling is weirdly atrocious.
