Pocock is off his feet at almost every single ruck. His technique is woeful these days.

Argentina making the running but they never take advantage of the metres they make. They need a decision maker at 10 to capitilise, or a Conrad Smith at 13. Wallabies defending well, all you can do when Barnsey's pingin'.

Kieran Read and the rest of the darkness are even worse- technique wise Pocock is superior, refs are just trying to take him out of the game.

This, half the time it looks like he is on his feet, Refs are just harsher these days.

The Wallabies have done wonderfully well in defence and even though they haven't got too many rewards from their breakdown work, they have executed what opportunities they have had with an efficiency the All Blacks would be proud of. Every game has an ebb and flow - looking forward to the wallabies getting their hands on some ball in the second half.

I don't often agree with Phil Kearns- but he has finally acknowledged that DHP can't kick- I applaud him for that

Oh fuck off. I just pointed out that Barnes is not really allowing a contest. Which he isn't. The few times we've got in there in good position he takes an age to let the Argies get it back. Others would call it. Given we're defending, that is impacting greatly.
