darkest day in australian rugby history

Unfortunately yeah, worse than Italy given our WC is in peril

 

[John S]

Really need a bonus point win against Wales next week

Awesome work Fiji. We are fingers crossed for runners up. Wallabies never got into that game.

Ref hands were all over that game, I'm not thinking biassed but definitely had an impact with interpretations that we just didnt click to. And it's not as if penalties didn't go to us that I would normally think undeserved.

Ugh that one hurts boys.

 

[Bullrush]

Fiji’s second unit almost lost that game for them but they were able to win penalties at key times. I don’t know if he was injured but I would be leaving Kuruvoli on as long as possible.

We got beaten by a far better side … Fiji were far more physical, faster, created more opportunities… actually had a game plan, had a great kicker and most importantly had discipline!

Yeah was the quickest turn over ruck calls I've ever seen.. but he painted it early but still think it was poor..

But we just never in the fight, dropped too much ball and couldn't get going.

Will be back next week to beat the pants off the Welsh.

Penalty 18-7 apparently.

Reminder that Wales scored 32 points against these guys

…Or they played a better team last week

 

[Goosestep]

Back line needs a huge shake up … Jorgensen will start against wales

Especially defence.

Ridiculous penalty count. Fiji weren’t Called from the side once. Just let them go nuts.

 

[Bullrush]

Stan talking selections with Michael Hooper LMAO

 

[John S]

Two things stand out:
1 we kicked it away too many times uselessly - kicked it dead twice
2 breakdown was shite either we didn't get numbers in attack and let ref call holding on within nano seconds, or basically let them have it when we were defending

 

[Tomthumb]

So we are all just going to ignore the blatant shoulder charge on Koroibete?

Maybe people can finally start rating Tupou and Skelton.
