Wallabies v USA Eagles, 5th September, Soldier Field, Chicago

[Ash]

Mumm takes a lineout but it wasn't close to straight.

Commentators saying that Horne hasn't touched the ball on attack.

That Eagles 12 has been a bit to handle. Beale takes a nice high ball under pressure.

Some better work now and Horne gets a touch. Wallabies making ground but the Eagles defensive is strong. Back for a penalty.

Mummy's meat pies are good.

AUS 26 USA 10 after 55 minutes with ktc.

Giteau heads for the bench.

Foley adds the extras to take the score to AUS 28 USA 10. 56 1/2 minutes gone now.

 

[Mr Doug]

@MrDoug. Sam Carter is on according to commentators. Think he is in 19 jumper on for McCalman?

Thanks HJ! I hope he can tighten things up?

 

[Ash]

That was some great leadup work from the forwards for that try. edit: and Genia.

faster more direct rugby pays dividends - go figure/// well done mum

 

[Pfitzy]

3 Eagles chasers on that kick were 3m or more in front. Neither Jaco or AR have a clue.

He's playing evensies for the little guy

The forwards are picking up the pace now - Dean Mumm cleans out at a ruck, then backs up to score the try.

He's probably contributing more than Genia.

 

[Tomikin]

Mumm also contributing.

Can we get Rob Horne running at first receiver from a lineout?

Turned over in his first run.. Just as awful as Tomane..

 

[KOB1987]

I assume Beale is at 12 and foley at 15?

Policing the offside and a tiring US pack is starting to take its toll. Will flatter the bench players coming on.

Were a second half country we will come back and win this game in style. Just like in WW2

 

[Pfitzy]

Toby Smith is on!

 

[gold heart]

foley goal kicking better this evening

 

[A mutterer]

nice to see us start to get our roll on. direct running = results.

 

[Ash]

Giteau off, Cooper on.

Confirmation that Foley must be Cheika's first choice 10 for the World Cup.

Douglas being still on indicates that Cheika wants to see some more out of him as well.

The makeup of the Wallaby backline would be interesting now.

 

[Pfitzy]

Turned over in his first run.. Just as awful as Tomane..

Hasn't let a try in yet through awful defence. Still better.

Thanks for being there for the first half this time

 

[Tomikin]

Hasn't let a try in yet through awful defence. Still better.

Hasn't saved one either.. when 3 on 1 .. done nothing..

 

[Ash]

TPN off, Hanson on.

Turnover by the Eagles, then they knock on a bit later and Horne grubbers pointlessly ahead.

Big hit from McMahon.

 

[cyclopath]

Some nice aggressive tackling from the Wobs now - better.
