Wallabies v Pumas, Bankwest (Parra), Sat 5th December

[footy1>31]

Needed the Iceman this tri-nations

Nothing's changed - we've just trod water - probably lucky the Saffies didn't participate otherwise the ignominy would've been even greater - FFS we have next to no game intelligence in our skillset or leadership!

 

[Viking]

As Homer Simpson would say "THEY'RE BOTH LOSERS!".

Scrappy game.

Actually I think we are big losers here. The fans are ones disappointed most.

If you had told me 12 months ago that Paisami would stay on the field and Petaia be subbed off for the Wallabies, I’d have laughed and laughed and laughed.

If we had a game next week - I would put Petaia on the bench and start Irae and Hunter at 12 and 13 respectively.

Hodge at fullback was not convincing for me.....

 

[Tomikin]

He was looking good this game. Such a shame he bottled that Sydney (Homebush) game.

He was one of the better players in Sydney... The whole team was shit

 

[Drew]

Australia did better, deserved a win. Argentina good defense. Hodge you dont laugh before, mate.

He’s had 3 games with the same situation, long range penalty to win at the death, he’d missed the previous 2. Sometimes you gotta laugh.

No one ever needs an iceman who melts under pressure

 

[molman]

Is 3 draws a record?

Reminded me of that Rugby Championship with SA where we had two draw against them.

 

[Chunderstruck]

So did we come last?

 

[Iñaki Zubizarreta]

Today he didnt play, but Chocobares in Blues' mind??

 

[PhilClinton]

So did we come last?

In a three team tournament if you’re not first, you’re last

 

[Dismal Pillock]

This one has 9-9 draw written all over it

 

[molman]

Nah. We've got to learn to finish things. Just not clinical enough. Not as far off as some people think we are though.

 

[Kenny Powers]

If I was Dave Rennie I would start IQ testing my players.

 

[Viking]

If I was Dave Rennie I would start IQ testing my players.

Then we wouldn't be able to find 15 players to start a match

 

[TSR]

Matt Burke complaining Australia wasn’t creative enough.

When it was pouring rain and no-one from either side could hold the ball.

You don’t have to play test rugby to realise that wasn’t the problem today.

 

[Rugbynutter39]

I thought Philips showed he was one of the most consistent players this test series with another generally good game.

Tupou made the difference coming on for me....and probably reason we ended up with a draw and not a loss at least...

 

[molman]

Oh Tomikin, he really wasn't... do agree, the whole team had a bad day.
