Who cares?
We won a fine victory in the dying embers against a fine opposition, the stuff of legend. The negativity of Australian rugby fans drives me to despair. Why aren't you celebrating instead of moaning?
Frankly I hate this. I'm out of here.
Well said Groucho. It wasn't a vintage performance, but we got the chocolates in the end and that's more than the other blokes can say (with due credit to them of course). We can be a negative bunch at times (myself included).
What I liked:
- Berrick played out of his skin. His option taking was terrific, he took the line on constantly and passed well. Defence was very solid
- Scrum was very solid until the replacements.
- Bam and Higgers did really well at the breakdown, constantly putting pressure on the Welsh
- Our defence was generally very good. Wales didn't create a lot in general play
- Lineout was secure nearly all night (much better from TPN tonight)
- We got some good go forward around the fringes when nothing else was on
- The rolling maul at the end was gold. Aussie Gold
- Diggers running in broken play
What I didn't like:
- Fucking meerkatting from Sanchez again. Just get the bloody ball out!
- An inability to adjust to the Wales rush defence at times
- Scrum going to shit once Fat Cat went off
- AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) reminding me once again why I don't feel fullback is his natural spot. I really hope KB (Kurtley Beale) is fit for next week.
- Nothing created in the backs at all. The midfield was very static apart from that one break leading to Horne's try
- Vuna's performance. That was dumb footy and nearly cost us the game. KB (Kurtley Beale) in next week and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) to the wing.
