Geez thats so good.

A fantastic win with our "2nd rate" side. So much strength to come back in next week and for the trip to NZ in week 3 and 4
 

Wallabies

Unpopular opinion: Fiji drua are cheap shot merchants, love putting on late dangerous hits. Their discipline is atrocious, constantly bending the rules, collapsing rucks, coming in from the side, not wrapping hands. Just look at their game against rebels last year, I’m all for supporting that team but I think their discipline and their utter disregard for rules is just blatant.

Thought the same thing throughout the game.

I do think we have watched them with a different lens. If the Brumbies did that at GIO people would call it out.

Luke Reimer has secured the #20 jersey for the wallabies. Keep those performances up and they can’t not select him.
It's a great performance, but Schmidt has generally avoided naming a pure 7 on the bench and has focused more on an impact, ball running back rower. Given McReight's ability to go 80 I'm not sure he'll be too quick to change this.

couple more like that and he may think about having options. in my mind reimer single handedly won that game in the last 20, everything was built off of his effort.s

Yes - but that is unlikely to be repeatable against international sides.

That said, he is a top class Super Rugby player.

who was missing from this side from the Brums? bobby V, wright. who else. lots of new faces. great win away. so hard to win over there. the refereeing is hectic over there

what a win! you could tell they were missing a few but still managed to get it done. so hard to win there. the game is so loose when played over there.
