Pocock had to bring his right leg forward to take his body weight so he could kick backwards with his left leg to free it. No malice was intended.

I just have to say, again, how chuffed I am. Not a technical rugby match. No sweeping backline movements. None! But I'm still pushing down goosebumps. What a gutsy defensive display.

It's going to be hard to get a couple of hours sleep after watching that!
I feel like I want to watch the full 80 minutes again!

Catch you all later.

Great defence from Australia. They would want to be careful of looking to milk every scrum for penalties, IMHO. You are solid but a good loose head, which Paul James is not, in a month of Sunday's, will straighten up Kepu. Be it Ireland, France or Argentina you meet in the semi finals, you will be seriously disabused if you think you scrum is a weapon. But great stuff when you went down to 13 men. Can the Wale go to the well again? Looks like Bandy legs is gone now as well.

making a mountain of an ant hill with that pocock subject, i don't know why you would post a video about it and risk it getting on social media. Are we not here to support the Wallabies, acknowledge it was a dubious subject, and move on, let the citing officer do his own homework, don't do it for him.

If any mod wants to do us a favour & delete every post about it....

I agree, people got a little excited following the scrums performance against England, but it's definitely not a attacking weapon that has other teams running scared. Ireland, France and definitely Argentina will back themselves against the Wallaby scrum.

Well, there's milking and there's attacking. Actually going for the big drive isn't milking the scrum for penalties. Milking is exposing the collapse on the hit.
