TRC Round 1: South Africa v Australia, Sunday 21 July 1:05am AEST

[Up the Guts]

Good hit back. Knew there was space out wide and executed. Nice finish from DHP.

 

[Aussie D]

TRY!! Great use of the mail to create space, lover having a fullback who hits the line and can pass.

 

[Tomikin]

Nice try White is playing well. Will be good to fire up Genia

 

[drewprint]

Wow. It’s amazing what you can do when you have a fullback who can complete a simple left to right pass.

 

[whitefalcon]

God I’m glad we’re using banks for the kicks for touch. It’s great to be able to gain more than 25m from a penalty.

 

[drewprint]

I reckon this first 30 mins has shown that Naisarani definitely belongs at this level.

 

[Aussie D]

Where were the chasers?

 

[Shaker]

Oh hes butchered it.

 

[Up the Guts]

Close your eyes on the replay. We would have been in the lead.

 

[Tomikin]

DHP.. oh my

 

[Aussie D]

Butchered! WTF?

 

[Ulrich]

Nerve wrecking stuff here from a Saffa viewpoint

 

[Up the Guts]

We did really well to keep composure in attack and find space on the edge then. Disappointing to bungle it but good signs.

 

[Up the Guts]

Aggressive scrum call. Quick ball and give Banks or Kerevi a go short side.

 

[Aussie D]

Scanners is having a good game, who knew that letting him take the reins solo would bring this out in him

 

[Derpus]

Hooper mate what are smoking jesus.

Its test rugby you have to play the percentages.

 

[Up the Guts]

Terrible penalty. In no way were any of them on their feet.

 

[Up the Guts]

How did we ever have advantage from the knock on at the lineout?

 

[Derpus]

Who doesnt take the 3 there, seriously?

 

[Shaker]

Lineout solid, scrum ok. Attack is very hot and cold, not a fan of our forwards quick passing but we've found ways through their line. Cut out the simple mistakes and we can win this.
