England v Australia, Sunday 19 November 2:00am AEDT

[Viking]

I can't watch us play England anymore, I get so angry . We create so many chances, but they will score against the run of play every bloody time.

This is why we hate England so much. I always feel like the better team, but we still lose.

It's wet, so we should either pass the ball really hard, really low, or in a slow loopy lob..........

 

[Viking]

Too many dropped balls by Beale to be considered one of the best today, that and giving up on the chase in the lead up to England first try

Agree. Poor game by Beale today.

 

[Viking]

whoever this ref is, I hope i never see him again.

 

[Braveheart81]

Wow. We've been destroyed by the kicks in behind.

Fuark. No the scoreboard really flatters England. Australia just not clinical enough.

People reckon Korobete can't turn and chase, but they have picked off Hodge pretty effectively in the last ten minutes

 

[Major Spliff Biggins]

I think that's done it. I'm never watching Australia play England again.

Should be seeing tries overturned because a supporter in the crowd made a sook face earlier in the match by the time the RWC rolls around

The standard of refereeing, the direction they have been given by the higher ups, the flat out disgraceful processes they use to come to decisions these days, all woefully amateur. Refs are influenced by crowds, players and most disgracefully, television producers. IRB refuses to fix it. Players need to be told to f*k right off during the game, wtf is Farrell doing pestering the ref continuously. All players do it though.

This is bloody humiliating now

For me Kuridrani had an average game at the most —- but we’re all entitled to our own opinions

I didn't notice Enever do much. And actually the first game I didn't think Hanigan was that bad, certainly wasn't worst on field - Simmons wanted that award back.

He's usually a bit average though isn't he. England bloody lucky.

Didn't ref say Ref say knock on by white, hand in the ruck in the ruck a couple of phases before that last try?

That was a game we should have won.

I think its well established now that the ref had no idea what he was doing

Enever didn't do anything flashy, but he did steal that English lineout late in the first half when we short players.........

This starts and ends with the IRB (World Rugby) - familiar pattern since 2011

 

[Slim 293]

We can't blame refereeing........ we blew our chances.
