Wallabies vs England, Sydney, 3rd Test, 25 June @ 8:00pm

[Bardon]

If I were an Australian I'd set up a GoFundMe to get a top kicking coach. If the Aus backs could kick half as well as they run the ball they'd be a serious threat to even NZ.

Itoje is a seriously good player. In everything

Decent waves of attack, Foley tries a chip but it's poor and too far across field. Well over.

Luckily England immediately lose the ball and we get it back.

Foley's kicking is a bit (lot?) off tonight, might be better keeping up the distribution.

 

[Keiran]

The

Add one more for the missed penalty!

I really like Foley but it's a problem. And there's no solution

There's a solution he just happens to be on the bench.

Goo run To'omua, great run Fardy - as expected Phibbs

 

[Upthenuts]

Moore trying to have a chat with Owens, but sent back.

Owens gives Coles and England a warning for offside.

Owens instructing Moore not to call for a yellow.

Foley to take a shot at goal about 44m out, 25m or so in.

Moore needs to ge coached on captaining from Ritchie, when ritchie told the refs what happened they listened

 

[Viking]

WOW England clear with ease from their 22. Foley take note of how to bloody kick.

 

[Prodigy]

Is Horne playing tonight? Geez he can hide from the ball.

At least he is doing his job. Why is Scott Fardy hiding on his wing? Fardy and Foley surely need big games.

Itoje is a seriously good player. In everything

I thought that the cleanout (Simmons and ?) did well enough to get him off the ball when Itoje is so strong over it, then Itoje rucked through and forced the mistake from Phipps.

Fardy is having a big game! Foley is a dud and I don't think Horne is playing???

 

[Ash]

At least our scrum is looking really strong again, putting huge pressure on the English scrum.

Simmons injured in a tackle and loses the ball to Vunipola. Looks like Simmons is gone, his right arm is hanging by his side.

Looks like Simmons'arm got twisted by Vunipola.

 

[ACT Crusader]

The Vunipola boys are playing well

 

[Viking]

To'omua needs to put his hand up and get into position to kick more. Stand directly in front of Foley if he has too.

 

[boyo]

Foley = Dud!

Brown = knob

 

[Ash]

Horne is very very good defensively, but for me he's not really a winger. Can't kick well, and doesn't get through enough work on attack, he needs to go looking for the ball more. Incidentally, I also have the same criticism on Morahan normally (about needing to get more involved). You can see it's not exactly natural for Horne.

To'omua great kick Izzy should have taken that

Nowell's been poor defensively tonight but he did brilliantly to take that high ball ahead of Folau.

 

[Ash]

Quick hands to DHP one the wing, and Hooper is tracking back on the wing a few metres back. I just don't get that attack pattern, makes little sense to me.

To'omua finally with a well executed high ball to Folau within metres of the try line, but the English winger manages to steal it from Folau's hands as he landed.

Comes back to Foley to take a kick at goal.

 

[Ash]

Foley kicks the goal, 18 - 17 to the Wallabies at half time.
