Hmmm.
3. Elsom (not for the blow up at the 1st half scrum)
2. Barnes
1. Moore
Beale was very good again (aside from one chip too many). His defence, high ball reception and his running were all strong...on the few occasions he was involved.

Will be interested to see the stats on Rob Simmons. I thought he played well. Does anyone else feel the tv images from these Italian grounds seem like its harder to pick up who the players are? Is it because its played at soccer grounds with motes and cameras are further away?

Burgess, fantastic energy, would love to transplant hands with functional fingers on;
Cooper, appeared to fall over in front of the ball carrier in a way that brought both his shoulder and his arms in contact, the player falling down in his grasp;
Slipper, schooled in the cheating arts of the scrum and appeared to learn the lesson

3 Rocky Elsom - For firing up and scoring the try
2 Stephen Moore- Solid as usual
1 Berrick Barnes - We complained and said we needed a kicker like Toby Flood after last week, and he basically delivered

1. Slipper(yep, that's right, he went well IMO, he was penalized on the perceived weakness of Australias scrum rather then doing anything wrong at times)

I thought Barnes was terrible. Completely ineffective with the ball in hand and constantly disrupting the back line play. Good defense though.

Agree GC, I remember sitting there and thinking, If it were Giteau making the same mistakes that Barnes was making or the way he was playing, people on this forum would be livid, and calling for his sacking, yet apparently not. Yes he kicked well, but I hardly think he was even close to a MOM performance..

Anyone know what the go is with Bam's ear? He didn't seem to have his usual impact. Also thought Hodgson did pretty well once he came on. Also looked like AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) was injured as he came off too.
RR, the article title on the blog page was by far the best possible choice. Champagne bloggosphereing.

3. Rocky Elsom - Rock ANGRYYYY - most pumped I've seen him in a while. Keep him off the Xanax!
2. Berrick Barnes - not his finest display but he did score 22 points and 6/7 penalties)
3. James "Jason" Slipper - got his freak on with a seriously good THP and coped, also good around the park
HM Matt Giteau - Played a solid game on the bench. Hodgson was very good in his cameo, perhaps outshining Bam (perhaps). Simmons was strong, and Sharpe seemed to do a mountain of work. If somebody diluted Burgo's red cordial he could have ripped 'em up.
