Wallabies v France 1st test - Suncorp 7 June

[Aussie D]

close thing with that intercept attempt

Would like to see Foley underplay his hand a little more.

Unlucky, off the post. Seems to be having issues from the right of the posts.

Is anyone else feeling frustrated with White's slow delivery from half back? Bob Dwyer would be having kittens.

Slow .. lol his been good

Come on Simmons simple stuff. Can't hand the ball back until there's contact!!

The badger close to getting the meat there.

AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) with the dive try. Excellent finish, lol. Great from all 3 camera angles.

Badge has been in the thick of it. Getting involved in the rucks, and some nice support play.

For a right footer foles struggles with the right to left place kick. Strange.

obstruction? that happens off just about every kick off

Simmons with a penalty and a drop so far, but surprising with his carries.

Kepu stepping around in front, giving an easy three to France.

Er, that penalty wasn't Simmons fault.

Yes it's not a maul until a French player hits him. Can't move the ball behind you because it's obstruction.

Er, that penalty wasn't Simmons fault.

Yes it was. He needs to wait before he brings the ball back. Kepu is doing his job becoming a pillar of the upcoming maul.

Been a crackdown in Super Rugby on it.

 

[Aussie D]

the Aussies are playing a very high tempo, high pressure game and the French seem to be struggling to keep up

 

[Ash]

Shame, Carter looked to be through a half gap. He looked in half a mind to offload to Cummins.

Wallabies carriers seem to be winning the contact more often than not.

These scrums are a lottery. Mas losing his bind on Slipper again under pressure.

Pretty sure it was called on Kepu for stepping in front, not Simmons for the early hand off.

Kicks for goal holding us back

 

[qwerty51]

Goal kicking cost us 8 point already. Won't win a World Cup until it improves.

 

[Ash]

Near miss for White, Foley replaced as kicker already? That's a surprise.

That was the call, Simmons' action made Kepu illegal. If he didn't hand the ball back early Kepu wasn't an obstruction.

 

[Aussie D]

is the Badger a modern day Rob egerton? Love how he is chasing down the high ball

 

[Ash]

BTW, checked, the obstruction was on Kepu, not Simmons.

Hooper!!!! try time
