Bledisloe 1: 29 July @ MCG

[Wilson]

It’s not just Gordon’s kicking that has been poor though. It’s Samu, Kellaway as well. But, they are kicking because of Gordon…

I wonder if we'd get better balance if Kellaway and Petaia swapped. Petaia has a booming boot in clearances and has slotted a few 50/22s in the past

will jordan would start at 10 for us. they have him on a wing! we are never beating them

 

[Marce]

Your kicker lost the first half or maybe tye lack of a kicker

 

[shanky]

There you go…
McReight plays and you don’t get 20 phases
Eddie’s experiment has not worked

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

I’m much happier watching Gordon play his game than Quade do the same knowing he doesn’t have the scope to get better at this stage.

 

[Pokinacha]

We just defended (almost) 20 phases. When was the last time that happened?

 

[rugbyAU]

I'm just about done with Eddie and the WB's

Gordon's flaws seem fixable. But they need to get fixed fast!

 

[Shiggins]

This game would.be much closer if Carter could kick. 3 easy points gone missing. Terrible kick off. And some very poor kicks in play. Rest of his game has been good.

 

[Shiggins]

Fairly flaccid AB pack making fuck-all inroads at the gainline. Ardie, DPaps, CTaylor, all getting driven backwards

Yeh. Because the wallabies forwards have shown up.

Evidence on what? All those pilfers v Arg ?

 

[shanky]

Jordan Petaia is the Brady Quinn of Australian rugby

 

[Shiggins]

This could end up 14 - 40 if wallabies don't fix the basics

 

[HogansHeros]

The pack has been solid around the park, backline has shown glimmers of hope.
Being let down by this kick heavy game plan with no good kickers in the team. Play to strengths.

 

[Dctarget]

Fuck I hate the MCC, difference between tonight being a sell out.

Did have a fuckable spiral though tbf

Evidence of 20 phases without any attack on the ball.
because Hooper has added ‘what’ in otherwise? Carrying?
he’s made 100 tackles but that’s it

 

[Shiggins]

All blacks second try is frustrating tho. How the hell a touchie can't see talea with both feet ln touch is beyond me. Then it's all blacks line out maul try.

Wayne Smith has been great so far.

 

[Wilson]

Have to say, Wayne Barnes has been phenomenal tonight. If anyone else refs the RWC final this year it will be a crying shame

Well he's not my first choice 7 but McReight isn't even my 3rd.
