Wallabies v France, Paris, Sun 6th Nov 7am AEDT

[Tomikin]

I’d suggest Wright should just make the one on one tackle and we wouldn’t need Jock as covering defender there

They both should have made the tackle

 

[Prodigy]

A great grind from our boys. Unlucky in the end. Would love to see a replay and check Danty's entry into that last ruck.

 

[John S]

Literally losing the game at the breakdown is apt

You could say we lost it at the breakdown 5 minutes into the game

 

[KOB1987]

A decent 10, Kerevi and Koroibete we win that by 20

 

[Rebel man]

Embarrassed to be a wallabies fan. Time and time again we fold as the pressure comes. That was absolutely pathetic

 

[dillyboy]

We were beaten up at the breakdown all night.

Cracker of a test despite the result

 

[Adam84]

They both should have made the tackle

Sure you’d hope covering defenders can cover for their teammates mistakes, but you need guys like a Wright to make the one on one tackles first.

Whinging about Jocks S&C after Wright missed a tackle is just stupid.

 

[Derpus]

They both should have made the tackle

Yeah Jock was shocking there too. Fended off like a small child.

 

[molman]

I wasn't actually that impressed by the French in this game. That was there to be won.

 

[Dctarget]

Fucking hell. Could've & should've won that. Genuinely buoyed by it though. To go down a point with literally half our best team injured, I'm taking that.

Lol. Hot take.
Great effort against top side. Massively overperformed with at least 3 key starters out or unavailable
Bad kick and miss tackle at the end

 

[Up the Guts]

Agree with Mitchell, can’t celebrate getting close. We should have won that.

 

[Prodigy]

If the plan was always to use Hodge to replace Foley, why not Lolesio?

 

[gel]

So many opportunities to win.

At the death, Australians could so easily advanced down field with an off side penalty by passing the ball straifhtht into the french loiterer...

But no, better to hold the ball run backwards, pass around the back of the offside player and lose 10m.

A magnificent effort by Australia to get so close against professional rugby players, but so far off the pace in terms of game awareness it's just not funny.

You're playing under Jaco, so spin the wheel on those decisions. He changes his line in the sand constantly.

We are number 9 in the world. They’re number 1. The difference was 1 point.
yes we should have won. But let’s not forget we’re not good enough to run with the big boys and yet we still got close.

Ahh fuck it, that’s bullshit and we should have won but for some terrible defence

 

[RugbyReg]

It’s the dumb plays that kill us again. That Foley pass. That Valetini kick. Then skill execution. Two shite Fainga'a throws. The double miss by Wright and Campbell.

Yuk

Go support New Zealand then.

yeah Rennies selections are confusing, Foley was average but replacing Foley with Hodge 8mins remaining was stupid

What an absolute crock. We were 5 mins away from one of our best wins for decade. Terrible fandom from you.
