Wallabies v Lions - 3rd Test, Accor Stadium, Saturday 2 August

[KiwiM]

Congrats Wallabies fans!

Best Wallaby performance since beating the Boks under Rennie?

Best wet weather Wallaby performance I can recall for a very long time.

Impressive to mentally turn around after what happened last week.

Speaking of turnarounds - Wallabies are night and day compared to RWC 23

Can't wait for the Rugby Championship

Yeah they all played immense, and Tate coming on also.

Nailed our team selections. Pretty good effort to win without bobby v.
We walk twice as tall when we play with skelton. Wish we could have him every game now that we understand how to play with him.

Thank god Itoje didn’t get a go on the mic this week

Alas he gets a go now...

 

[Major Tom]

Alas he gets a go now...

He sounds like he’s taking the piss.

 

[cyclopath]

Still managed to be ungracious...
Quite an effort.

Already changed channels thankfully

A real shit that we'll be losing Tom Hooper after this year at least for a period. On his performances all year and particularly this game, he should be locked in as a starter for the Wallabies. Would like to see a backrow of 6 Hooper, 7 McReight, 8 Valetini. And when available, Skelton in the second row.

 

[Major Tom]

Christy Doran will still have something negative to say tomorrow.

Ive already turned it off. What's the flog saying?

In saying that he’ll be better when he returns. Gleeson will be missed too but he’ll come back better.

He's getting better and better. Long term "must keep".

We have grown considerably as a team in the last 12 months, agreed.

Nothing less that you would expect from him.

He was thanking RA for our hospitality but he was looking at his team and like giggling while he was saying it. Acting like he’s in high school. Which fits with the ‘he started it’ call last week.

Acknowledged RA. Didn't acknowledge the opposition who just beat the shit out of him physically.

Must still be concussed.

Didn't really recognise the opposing team though...

Christy Doran will still have something negative to say tomorrow.

Christy Doran doesn't get rugby.

What a ponce

 

[Shiggins]

Haha the lions fans are quiet tonight. Only a few saying it was a dead rubber and a useless non competitive series still

I wonder if Haskell is going to make any comments in diving this week
