Wallabies v Lions, 19 July Suncorp

[Super Hooper]

I agree Dismal — Lynagh is looking better than the other options at the moment. He seems to have the right temperament.

Lynagh isn't the main problem. It's just all their players look like +100 kg meanwhile the Wallabies look like weight 80 kg

 

[Shiggins]

A big concern is that the Lions backups are too strong. It was supposed that starters vs starters even and they would make the difference with their substitutes...

Disagree. Our bench is better than half the players out there. I would have bell by a mile, Tate, dono, peitch all on to start

 

[HogansHeros]

Chaotic game. I like the pressure the wobs were putting the Lions under towards the end of the half. Could open up, we need to score next.

 

[Shiggins]

You mean he missed a kick from the sideline kicking right to left?

That's as tough as kicks come.

A lot of his kicks have been short or straight to a lions player. It's shit, compared to the lions back 3 and Russel's boot

 

[Dismal Pillock]

As someone else said, Aus didnt look ready for this level of intensity.

FFS I hope this doesnt blowout to 50 or something. Would not be a flash look in test 1.

CdC having a crack

Been better than I expected. Limited on attack but been a handy big bod on D in 22.

Conversely, I think he's showed, for a kid in his first test start (?) that he's a keeper. Had a rough first few minutes but then knuckled down (in a HIGH level game) to show he has the right calm temperament and ticker for his position.

He is supposed to be in there for his kicking too which has been poor.

Anyone else’s Stan feed gone to shit.

Thought my Telly was on the fritz but turned it onto something else and it’s good.

 

[Shiggins]

The defence. It genuinely looks like a team to play right on the edge of offside vs a team who try and stay onside. Everyone says it's like speed. Half the time it's fkn offside

 

[fatprop]

So smart from the Lions, they keep pressuring our dwarfs and blowing over the top

 

[Strewthcobber]

Everytime I feel a bit of imposter syndrome at work, I remember SBW is a highly paid commentator

 

[Super Hooper]

Disagree. Our bench is better than half the players out there. I would have bell by a mile, Tate, dono, peitch all on to start

Bell is probably the strongest ball carrier in the 23. Tate it is depends of what kind of game do you want. With that physicality disadvantaged he would be useless. Dono and Piestch are average at best

 

[molman]

Go along with that, Lynagh is going alright. kid looks like he got some future.

Don't disagree on the sentiment. The issue is a Lions test isn't where you'd ideally want him getting his experience.

 

[KiwiM]

Amazing skills by Curry there

 

[Super Hooper]

It could be a historic defeat...

 

[Derpus]

Thats disgraceful.

 

[Shiggins]

Is curry onside ?

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Fuck me thought he was the Hooker that could throw

 

[A mutterer]

Undercooked hooker ...

I'm sure there's some joke there about the fez

Nothing with me
