Australia Vs Argentina, September 13, Gold Coast

[Dctarget]

Link went to the bench early, but it sorta had the opposite effect this week.

Yeah he really can't win can he. No matter what he does we'll rip into him.

When it's stationary that long, I'd like to see the ref make them play it.

Agree.

Argies just needed to get it out and let the backs play. They were full of confidence in the last 15 minutes and making easy inroads against the Wallaby defence.

Pumas lack that edge.

 

[Omar Comin']

I think that was a pretty ridiculous call from the ref at the end there. The scrum was set and fine, and the half back fed the ball. Refs have too much involvement in the scrums. Let the players get on with it.

Argentina have only themselves to blame though really. They didn't play any rugby for 60 minute or so.

 

[A mutterer]

gg argies, made it a nailbiter in the end.

gg wobs, kept our composure again.

phipps motm for me.

Oh really Hooper, didn't you say the same last week and the week before and the week before that.....
I don't mind the win but the rugby is really giving me the shits. not convincing enough

 

[biggsy]

So I count 6 bombed try's in 2 games!!!!! We need killer finishers

Thats why izzy there, right ......

 

[lemoen]

Congratulations to the "Quantas Wallabies"

I would like to call up the "Quantas Wallabies" captain

Ladies and gentleman, put your hands together one more time for the "Quantas Wallabies"

 

[Shiggins]

Thats why izzy there, right ..

Was he ? Lol

 

[Spewn]

2 huge pilfers in two games for hodgson

Can we put Hooper in at 6 and Hodgo at 7?

Watching earlier game, it's pathetic we don't have someone who can get turnovers. Absolutely essential to win the big games. How else do you get the ball back?

 

[biggsy]

Was he ? Lol

his hair cut was amazing tonight, thats a game changer...

 

[Lorenzo]

Hooper's become incredibly popular but my preference is pocock's style of play.

 

[Brumby Runner]

Phipps redeeming some of his earlier play right there - good pace, good pass. Good finish from Betham too.

That's true, but not in a classic half back situation - more like a centre running off the No 10 and passing to the winger.

 

[Viking]

Really not a convincing win at all. Not sure how everyone else feels but I'm really not very confident for the rest of the Rugby Championship.

How long has it been since our back-line looked threatening?

 

[Lorenzo]

Folau's kicking and passing skills leave a lot to be desired, and frankly I think a test 15 should be near the top of the team in both. Dagg has no problem slotting in to the centres and he has a howitzer for a leg.

 

[I like to watch]

Oh really Hooper, didn't you say the same last week and the week before and the week before that...
I don't mind the win but the rugby is really giving me the shits. not convincing enough

You know what the problem is?
Not enough Tahs on the field.......

 

[Viking]

Amazed that Hodgson managed 2 turnovers in such a small amount of time. I would not be against him starting over Hooper against the ABs.

 

[Shiggins]

I'm a huge pocock fan bit hooper was been the main reason we win games like this. Pocock has done this in the past though

a week apparently..

no problems have been solved, the Phipps/Foley/To'omua combo has ensured some security, but it's still not happening..no RWC 2015 coming our way

 

[cyclopath]

That's true, but not in a classic half back situation - more like a centre running off the No 10 and passing to the winger.

So it doesn't count then?

Thats true, I haven't seen Link that unhappy since he last coached the Tahs.
